How big are they going to get? Large Scrog

How big are they going to get?

I dug big holes. Around 60-80 gallons like 5-7 CU. Happy Frog, miracle gro poting mix, miracle gro perlite, miracle gro garden soil, and native soil clay sand mix. 1st feeding 6 days ago little better than half strength Lucas formula. In about a week ill give them the 2nd feeding, full-strength Lucas.

Plants are grown from seed transplanted end of May from 1-gallon pots. Scrog net is 5 feet wide with 6-inch squares. Plants are 5 foot wide. I figure we are 3-4 weeks away from flower.

How do I set my scrog net up? I have never done this.
With my scrog net on some of the squares, I have 2 branches coming out. Should I do a layer of the same 6-inch and do a layer of 3-inch above?

I also have an issue of something eating where I been pinching my plants hard. Its chewing off the outer bark. I am breaking them enough to have a little juice come out. Thinking maybe grasshoppers, mice, or squirrels I'm trying to keep them short and stocky.

Hello friend, thanks for sharing your garden with us. Since you are outdoors you don't need a scrog net because the plant will have strong stems just from being outdoors.

The stem damage is from leaf hoppers; you can't stop them with any pesticides. Catch them with your hand and kill them when you see them. The plants will compensate for the damage by becoming more potent. As the leafhoppers attack the plants the plants will get stronger naturally and the hoppers will go away. Just keep the plants well-watered and mulched so they can repair their selves.
