    Default 250 cfl growbox

    Attachment 16101 hi guys hopeing for a little help. havent had much luck with airopnics and this grow i might be getting somewhere. the plants are 3 and a half weeks from seed they are mystery seeds given off a good supplyer was more of a test but now the plan is to introduce a scrog but not so sure if ive left it to late plus ive got the sexing problem. ive only grew femaleseeds lol. ive topped them above the 4th internode 2 days ago and seem to be doing good with pleanty of little shoots comeing from each fan leaf but im not so sure if i should cover them with the screen and bang them on 12 in a few days or keep them vegging through the screen for a bit as i only have a small grow box. any advice please. ignore the 1 on the left thats in soil as a experament n aint doing as well the 2 in the res r hopefully the ladies the 1 in the soil may be going outside 2 finish off.

    I don't see any reason why you can't scrog m8. It's generally best to veg until the screen is full, then switch. I'm gonna scrog this time around whenthey get a bit bigger. If your growing fems, you won't have to worry about untangling a boy.

    Someone with abit more experience might say otherwise, but from what I know really you need fem's to scrog as untangling a male mould be a nightmare. You could always LST instead.

    If your going to scrog, set your screen whenever to suit your box, and let your plants grow into it.

    bifter mate If your planning a scrog then simply put your screen in about 6 to 8 inches above the pot and let the plants grow up to it and every time she pokes through the screen about 3 to 4 inches just pull it back through and train it in the screen
    Keep doing this until roughly 70% of the screen is full then switch over to 12/12
    when you get the screen in get that cfl right up close and personnal to the plants 2 to 4 inches close your plants will love you for it
    As for veg dont go on weeks go on the plant and when your ready to switch over
    Good luck mate check out my diary I am doin 2 feminized northen lights under a scrog the now

    Meant to say mellow put in a good point bout males in a scrog but by the time the sex shows the plant should be easy enough to pull out just keep them seperate on the scrog
