HYDRO HOLY SCROG Picture Journal

[IslandColas]

Aloha,

and welcome fellow growers to my second round of flowering in my perpetual harvest tent.

The last endeavor involved a SOG of 9 Rozay clones I had received from a friend. I had just bought the materials and was in a HUGE hurry to get the tent producing. (I was also excited beyond belief shhhh ) for that reason the clones had almost no veg time before flipping, as well as the tent having many logistical issues that made growing more difficult. I’m glad I put myself through a bootstrap grow just to teach me what I actually needed, what was extra, and what was a waste of money. Due to the haste we lost a lot of light efficiency and suffered on yields as well. Though I’m very happy and thankful for my results from last grow I’m positive there’s only room to improve and increase the quality and yields to follow.

Major changes/additions
• SCROG NETTING
• FLOOD TABLE STAND
• SMART POTS
• LARGER POTS
• DEEPER FLOOD LEVEL
• HEAVY TRAINING
• LONG VEG
• 4 PLANTS

A SCROG 4x4 is what I have been planning since the beginning but due to time restrictions and excitement my first round was a little by the seat of my pants. I went with my gut and previous experience with hydroponic growing and things went really well. I feel that now with a plan I will only increase yields and quality further with each new round.

So without further discussion here’s to the beginning of a great grow!!!!

Strain:
Niles River (two plants in the back)
Super Skunk (front two plants)

GROW DETAILS:

Ebb and Flow
Hydroton Media
Smart Pots
4x4 SCROG
600w HPS
4x4 Tent
GH Expert Feed Schedule
(1/2 base nutrients)
9 Daily Feedings

so ive been so busy lately I’ve barely been able to keep up with my current Rozay SOG Picture Journal. I was so feverishly disinfecting and prepping my tent to restart that I forgot to take a lot of the beginning progress photos. But like usual there will always be some eye candy attached!!!

heres what we look like so far:





All these photos were taken on day one of SCROG install. In the photos they’re all freshly weaved and reservoir has just been filled. I did quite a bit of super cropping so I made the decision to do a week of veg in the ten to allow the plants to recover. This post is technically on day two of veg.

Very nice mate, I’m envious of that clean set up and certainly you’re right, you learn fast and got it set up nicely, all the best with your garden there.

[9fingerleafs]

Looking absolutely perfect

[Canuck147]

Very nice!

Day 3 of Veg but Hurricane Lane is greatly threatening the grow. Hawaii loses power often and when even small storms strike. I hope we do not lose power for long, nor have any serious issues. Fingers crossed!!!!

[NAKEDGARDENER]

We are praying for ya all my friend, not just that you all get through this relatively unscathed, but also on the issue of growing, even if the storm does little damage and their are no injuries or deaths due to it, my second thought is on power outages , will be thinking of you guys over the next few. Days

[Tika]

Hang in there and keep us posted! Thinking of you and wishing you well.🤗🤗🤗

Day 4 of veg. Hope the hurricane passes soon... these babies are ready to flip

Much aloha my friend. My family’s safety is number one. But I’ve been through many of these that have came and gone so my biggest concern is power outage not only for the grow but the whole property and my company depends on power.

Day 5 of veg and the storms nearly here! Crossing our fingers that we get to see this crop to completion

[alltatup]

Man, I am holding a good thought for ya!!!

[IslandColas]

Much aloha for the good wishes!

[IslandColas]

So the storm wasn’t even a storm! We got some good rain and a couple wind gusts, but nothing we don’t see on a regular basis. Glad everything worked out and we didn’t get hit by a huge hurricane but also very bummed I had to prep so feverishly for a crisis that never even happened...

Well the second I knew we were all clear I began preparing the tent for flower.

The reservoir has been changed, water ph’d, light timer set, and now we’re ready to have our first 12 hour night tonight. Very excited to begin the journey of my first SCROG grow, and I hope to beat my 356.8g last grow. Let’s do this!!

Congratulations. I wish you a great run

[IslandColas]

Day 2 of flower and the flip is almost initiated. The girls are starting to recognize the 12/12 cycle and are beginning to reach for the light in a very even uniform fashion. I’m already starting to see the amazing things a SCROG does for an indoor garden!!!

[Canuck147]

Now the show starts - nice job!

[Sheesh]

Looking good, glad the storm missed you. Great phase for growing in general and really great time in the scrog cycle. My scrog is just about mid flower now and most of the pruning is done. It's nice to just feed them and watch them for a few weeks after a couple months of training and pruning.

[IslandColas]

For real! Now that they’re in the tent it’s set it and forget it for the most part

[9fingerleafs]

buckle up, those healthy bushy plants are going to push the net once you start tucking down

[IslandColas]

I’m wondering if I’ll have to weigh it down lol it’s pretty heavy but they’re pretty thick healthy stalks

[9fingerleafs]

im not sure but youll find out in the next few weeks, after the first month the branches start getting heavy and they gonna rest over over the net instead of just pulling up, maybe put a little weight on it during the stretch just to be sure if you see fit

[IslandColas]

Day 3 of flower and growth continues even and steady across the screen. By next week this time I’m sure I’ll have a completely full net and my biggest focus will be humidity.

[NAKEDGARDENER]

Glad to see you back and plants doing well, hope storm didn’t effect you too badly.

It didn’t do a single thing! Barely even stormed where I’m at

[NAKEDGARDENER]

Well that’s great, glad you weren’t in it’s path or no flooding etc.
