Indoor Growing Scrog

Saw on Instagram yesterday that 420 has finally revealed his secret fertigation ingredient: Sparking Peach. Who knew?

I'm kidding, of course -- I know it was to illustrate the size of the main stem, a monster!

Day 60. FastBuds Gorilla. ( 750 ppm, pH 6.2, 650-700 ppfd, 50-55 dli, 24/7, using 100 watts at 7"-9" from canopy. )

Next questions:

1. Let the tops up?

2. Do a heavy defoliation?

( My kingdom in trade for some ~2.5" netting, for future use. 🙂 Haven't found anything, anywhere. )

Lol!
Autos grow really well when you add peach energy drink to your reservoir. 😜

Looking good Goose!
Yes… you can let everything start growing vertical from here but hold off on the defoliation for now.
When you get a chance please post a side shot of your girl, I would like to see what she looks like from the front.

Thanks 420! And thanks wangotango for the net tip! Here she is from the front. Not as flat as I would like -- her main stem got away from me. Second photo: As I've mentioned, I'm almost certain that I have been giving seedlings and young plants too much PPFD, and they see no need to stretch. I've never had a main stem that made it more than half an inch or so above the surface, as shown in the second photo. And then all the next growth stems get thick and woody right away too, and stay much shorter than your plants' stems. The thick stem that moves toward 11 o'clock isn't even the main stem. Can't get a good shot of the main stem.

I’ve been having the same issue for awhile just recently been turning the lights back in veg keep ppfd < 500 @18/6 but it also depends on the cultivar

Thanks Lil Dab. I've grown 6 different cultivars, all Sativa dominant, and had the same results every time. It's my only guess as to what's going on, and it's only a guess of course. Will be interested to hear how your experiment nets out. I plan to do similar to what you're doing, next grow.

No problem it had been something on my mind and I'm always playing with. I make sure the light is there if they want they just have to stretch for it. I've been attempting my first scrog as well here she is day 36 and then 39 3 days after netting
