    One of the main advantages of ScrOG, is when the main growth is redirected horizontally 90 degrees to the screen, therefore the light will help get to 90% percent of the buds on the plant.If vertical a lot of buds won't get any light towards the bottom half.Also it's about height restriction too.,it will cut down the height if you don't have much height to play with

    I think he means 8 feet Up to no good.

    A scrog (screen of green).
    Is to create an even canopy of one or more plants under a screen.
    Place screen on top and train the plant to grow outwards under it.When shoots try to grow up push them back under.
    When screen is 70-80% full, flip to 12/12 and you end up with many uniform buds all the same size.
    Rather than one big cola and a few side colas.
    Its done to increase yield.You are making sure every single bud gets the same amount of lumens.
    What you end up with is solid nuggets everywhere rather than popcorn bud at the bottom.
    Check out the last page of me diary.Im just about to chop.

    Peace

    As cock says, do two. One on top the other.
    And I would def recommend scrog, every single one of my buds is getting even light and they are all growing evenly, my top colas look like every other cola.
