    Default Height of finished scrog

    So, I am looking at doing a scrog grow.
    Main reason being that I have some height issues.
    So, my question is, what size should I expect for a final height after scrog?

    I ahve been looking at various strains and there recommended height when finished (Christmas tree style). So for example, if a plant usually grows to 1m Christmas tree style, is it safe to assume the following:

    30cm height to screen.
    30cm training across screen
    40cm height above screen.
    So total length of plant =1m

    It'll depend on strain,medium grown in,when
    You switch to 12/12 and how long you leave it
    Before you stop tucking the shoots under the net.

    Well I figured that.
    Do you have examples of any you have done?

    Im presuming you mean autoflowers? Photoperiod plants can obviously be vegged as long as you like so stated heights go out the window.
    Tbh its abit like the how much will i yield question. Impossible to answer

    Why would I ask about scrog auto's?

    What I am after knowing, is how high after the flip will the plant reach.

    I do think really get why difficult to understand.

    Put it this way.....Those who have done a scrog, what heights did you end up with?

    Easy tiger, people are only trying to help mate. In your first post your giving all sorts of measurements length under screen across, and all you want to know is how high they will go, you could of simplified this in the beginning tbh.
    And the answer to your question is.
    However much your plant stretches from the screen in transition from veg to bloom which has so many things that can help or hinder stretch your guess is as good as ours tbh
    Best wishes

    Even simpler. The stretch is the stretch. If plant doubles in height during stretch, it will do so in a scrog. and that includes both the horizontal and vertical dimensions before flip. The height of the screen does not matter.

    In your example, 30cm below screen + 30 cm training along screen = 60cm. Unless it is a stretchy Sativa, I would allow (1.5 x 60cm) above the screen to be safe. Some sativas could go 2.5 x 60cm.

    It's not an easy question to answer mate.

    Much depends on the strain, lights, nutes, environment & grower skills...

    However, if you use a rule of thumb that the plants will double in height then you should be in the ball park somewhere... that said, some plants may triple in height, like I said, it's not a cut & dry question

    But, a little bud porn for you to help.... here is one of Jesse Pinkman's scrogs

    In my current scrog with a white widow, my screen is at 24 inches, and above the screen growth is another 36 inches.
