Thank you for your comments and posts, nigel and littlebitaweed. I'm interested in any application or tweak of the concept.
Everyone has style and preference. In ScrOG one can tie down or pull under or both. ScrOGgers can avoid a support level by splaying branches left and right into a 'T'. These are styles. Fundamentally, ScrOG is ScrOG regardless of how you apply it.
Since the Chain and Sticks is just a variation on the ScrOG method one could also tie down or pull under or both. One could also avoid the support level by splaying branches left and right into a 'T'.
I personally like to train each plant in only one direction. Here I tried multiple plants each in its own planned direction. Previously I trained multiple plants all in the same direction.
Training each plant in only one direction makes each more manageable and avoids 'splitting' the branches when attempting the 'T'.
You can see the two plans I employed in the 'Growing' thread in my signature. The first half of this grow was with plants from seed. They were grown from left to right. This caused plants on the left to over-shadow their neighbor on the right. The second half of the grow is with clones. These were trained in the pattern described in post #4 of this training thread.
