I use screens to grow. I call them floaters. They give me the control of a scrog and keep the plant mobile if it needs removed or tended to. This is a pic of each 2x4 space in my 4x8. No cola is higher than 30" from the floor. No plant has been topped. It's all training with and without screens.

My 4x4 has 4 plants in there. 2 Chocolate Diesel, 1 Cap Junky Durban Poison, and 1 8 Miles High. Rear plants are under a 20x44 floater snd the other two sport 18x18 floaters.

I shoot for 6-8oz per 18x18 floater. Ive been growing this way for over a year now and really enjoy the rewards I reap.

Damn man, I have a whole roll of poultry fence and I never even thought about using it for a scrog net, thanks for sharing this with us

Let's see if it's reflective

 

[ductwizard]

thats the stuff

 

[greenmonster714]

Yeah that'll work. I like wire but you can use anything to hold them back.

Cap Junky...harvest 77days in 12/12 Super frosty and stanky girls. These two monster clones under floater screens will give me well over a pound.

A bit late to this thread, but for what it's worth. . .

I grow outside and in a greenhouse. 30 years ago, I bought a roll of 6" mesh, concrete reinforcing wire to make heavy duty tomato cages, 18" in diameter and still going strong. I put one around each seedling and leave until harvest - just the right size for autos. For photo grows, I add supplemental screen mesh around the tomato cages. These work great. Simple to reach through the mesh and train branches for support. This leaves the buds airy and open, which helps avoid pre-harvest fungus problems.

Very nice. A fellow pollen chucker on another site gave me a bunch of cap junky seeds. Have grown masterpiece several times and she has cap in her lineage.

I have tried the string and purchased netting and I Usually only get one grow out of those because I cut the mesh when I harvest. now I use the coated fencing from Lowes so far my friskas have not cut it.
