    Default Scrog questions

    After some reading i know that the screen height should be 8-12 inches from the medium but I am still not sure what height to to go with...

    I don't need underneath access for watering, as i use NFT, but obviously some access is needed for pruning when the time comes.
    The breeder notes say that my strain (liberty haze) grows to about a metre when mature & i have a tent that is 240cm high (I probably have 2 metres to play with if you consider the size of my hoods/NFT tank)

    Based on that info what would you successful scroggers go with?


    Thanks

    If height isnt a problem then go for the higher option just for more airflow and easier access to the underside.

    Must say im not a 'successful scrogger' though, cant think at the min when ive done one tbh....sure i have at some point.

    Lol. Did you read that as 240 metres by any chance? 2.4 metres isn't that high lol.

    I want to veg for the shortest time possible but I have no time limits. I am aiming for the recommended 75% of the screen being filled before flipping to 12/12. I normally run 8 plants with no topping or training and average 30-40 oz. If my calculations are correct I should be able to get 40-60 instead. That would be mint.

    I'll stick with 12" then.

    Lol.. Never seen a 240cm high tent. Sure it's not 2.0cm high & 240cm wide?. Anyway yeah 12" would be better I reckon m8..

    Not sure but you're probably right. 120cm x 240cm x 200cm is how it is written on the site?

    It is indeed perfect for 2 x 600's, although I have 6" extraction which works great. Plenty of negative pressure even at half speed.

    I was thinking that the lower option was better, Im on my second scrog and have my 4 screens at 12 inches seem to take forever to fill from seed so was going to lower them next time.
