What scrog do you use?

@Jbum @kw_Bat @ThatoneAKguy @Mrcrabs @Grandaddy013 @PurpNGold74

Feel free to add tags as I know I missed hundreds of other well informed people!

So my dilemma is, I’ve never ran a scrog and wild like to have a go. Sick and tired of supporting, defoliating, and maintaining a canopy that’s impossible to keep in a decent order while doing day to day work.

What scrog would you all recommend that would give the ability to be used multiple times.

I prefer to try in one 4x4 tent then if it’s effective and efficient enough I’ll add to the other systems

mine is just a simple PVC frame with masonry line that I can just cut out when it’s time and re string it. I like what @Myfriendis410 does with the individual SCROGS it will allow you to keep and even canopy but seems like it would be easier to deal with multiple plants.

I use the nylon 6” it’s like basketball net material. The problem with 6” is you end up doing a double most of the time. One to spread and one to support. I guess it might happen with 4” too. I don’t like wire mesh because you have to chop above it and you can’t manipulate it personally. I just zip tie mine to the corners and trim around the fan. Here’s a photo of a single I did when I was dirt farming super silver haze.

This one is very close to the one I use. Perfect.

Do those hooks actually work? The haze pushed on the zip ties I had cranked down and were trying to raise the net on me. Plus I’ve got a little backwoods desire to use zip ties and gorilla tape on everything.

I use 3/4inch PVC. NOTHING glued. Screws every 4inches, nylon string around screws

Yep this is pretty much my set up. Just bigger PVC is all.

Hoping when I grow up I can fill a screen like that some day!!!

I normally run one plant under a 4x4 scrog. I get my net about 60% full, then flip lights. They stretch A LOT

Thry are portable, very clever fella, gets the best of both worlds, he can bring them indoors if the weather gets bad, amazin results

Thanks for the shout out @Mrcrabs @BobbyDigital

If anyone is interested, here is a photo of my SCROG frames. They are on casters which allow me to move them around for pruning and inspections plus I rotate them 180 degrees half way through each day period.
The actual SCROG frame is adjustable in height as well.


This photo was taken when I moved the plants into the main room and put the frames on.

This is what it looked like a few days ago (35 days after flipping):


I am still working on getting a nice even canopy, a work in progress.
