Bath Buddah

Hey,

I have a very small (vertical) grow room.. I have read up on the ScrOG method..

which method is the most efficiant?

1) cutting or bending the tip of the plant down

2) Putting chicken wire over the top height.

Thanks.

PS.. Once my plants have reached the height i want them to, should I put it to 12/12 for flowering?

when you determine weather the plants are a size you like --
or are an appropriate size for your small area remember that
when going from 22/2 cycle to a 12/12 cycle this abrubt transition will cause a burst of stem enlongation that will cause the plant to heightem up to an inch a day for approximately two weeks----a 2 1/2' plant will probably end-up 3 1/2'----you don't want to be forced to arrange full-sized plants in a tight area.

If you train / bend the plant then figure into the total height of hte plant as joseph is suggesting ... if you are usign a screen then you want to have abotu 60%-75% of the screen full before you flower so that when the plant stretches you will still have room for it to fill in and you won't have to start chopping off tips of flowering baby

in your situation i would deffiantly use wire, this way the plant can not grow any taller then the wire! just keep on looping it in and out of the wire when flowering starts!

why not just put wire up a wall and train it up the wall and then have a peice of wire over the top to keep the desired hight, a real compact plant

Uh This is a comment; nothing to help this thread but to take into consideration when others will view this thread.
Wouldnt that be a Real freggin pain in the Pooper to untangle all of these flowers and stems etc.. when ready to harvest?out and around da chickin wire? how easy of a task would that be eh?
Use Snippers, cut it, get buds out"ifany"? and buy more chickin wire?
*im curious,
i dont know what i would use for the screen method maybe just a post in the center of a Pot with 3 plants surrounding it. training them around the post and each other ina vine special kind of way. Keeping them nice compacted to whatever heighting or lowering u wanna do Mature a plant quickly that way. i think.
