Cwilly's LED DWC SCROG

[cwilly006]

Hey guys,

Onto my next new box. I like changing it up but I could be sticking with this setup for a while as it seems like a good size.

Dimensions: 4ft high x 4ft wide and 2ft deep

Lights: Two Advanced Platinum P150's and One California Lightworks Bloombooster. 32w per square foot. I may try and increase the light bunter sure yet.

I am doing DWC and I installed a screen that is attached to each bucket so I can easily maintain the reservoir.

I will hopefully have 2 Gorilla Glue and 1 OG Kush

Here is my current grow that I have over at my buddies.

Cheers!

I took the clones last Thursday I think so gotta wait for them to root then we will be on our way. This is my first time doing a SCROG. Any tips from the experts?

Did the clones root and make it into the box?

Woooooohh! Finally at the end of a very busy winter and of course was not able to update the thread at all. Now that I am in the slow season it should be much easier to keep you guys in the loop. So everything has been going great! Haven't had any problems and the plants are growing like crazy. Here are some pictures today after I did a whole lot of training and taking off all the big leaves.

So of course everything can't always go to plan. I am leaving for 2 weeks next Sunday and don't really want to switch to flower until I am back. I will have someone watching my plants but I was just going to have them add water after I switch the nutrients out Saturday night. I have been able to go that long before just doing water and since I am in flower I am not too worried about it. My biggest fear right now is how big the plants are and what they are going to look like when I get back from my trip. I think I will just have to do a bunch of topping and immediately switch to flower. I know my screens will be much more full than desired so I think this round will not be a true SCROG as I will not be able to push them down throughout their stretch.

What are your thoughts everyone?

Cheers!

Looks like they handled that extra veg time just fine!

Thanks guys!! Really happy with how they turned out. Quite a long veg time but seems like it's totally worth it. Next time I may lower the screens a little bit. One of the root balls is the shape of the bucket, pretty funny. I don't really have much room to tuck them under so just hoping they don't stretch too much as I can't raise my lights much more. The first 5 days I accidentally left my 2 LEDs in veg mode haha. Think it may have slowed down the stretch. Anyways here is day 8.

Here we are at the start of week 4. Just took a lot of the lower growth off today and made sure as much of the ladies were getting light as possible. Should be my last big manicure on them as I got most of the stuff out of there.

Cheers!

Thanks man! I agree going to be a fun six weeks! Anyone have any guess on yield?

Cheers!

I'm gonna say 40-50g x 3 as an achievable goal to aim for, looking at your other grow I'm guessing you're expecting similar numbers?

I am hoping for right around there. I just added 4 of these lights. 10.5w draw with 65w equivalent. I think I am right around 40w per square foot now with these.

Cheers!

I know everyone bags the colour of those flower LEDs, but those girls are the sexiest thing I've ever seen in a red light district.
