I hope you can post a few pictures showing what it took to get it where it is now.
How old?
Size of the space?

When did you stop pinching the growth tips?

Nice work!

Unfortunately everything i have for this grow was done in video. But i can tell you it is a straight forward LST. It hasnt been topped or fimmed. I was late to start working with this one. She sat in cloner only recieving water for a month as a seedling waiting for space. When i transplanted she was about a foot tall and spindley. I gave it a few days to get acclimated to nutrients and started the lst process. At first i literally just bent her over as far as i possibly could and went in about a week or so and tied down the new growth in an even pattern directing lowest branches opposite my top on a flat plain. Then after a another week i removed the bottom 2 nodes on every branch and every shoot and repeated this for about a month before i flipped. So all in all she was about 80 days at flip. Then i realized how screwed i was in the lst game and Scrog became the only viable option with this beast. I would have begun the netting process sooner had i realized this was the route i was going to take.

I really wish there was a video upload option. I have so much excellent footage.

Slight defoliation today…well in the process of defoliation anyway. The back of this tent is gonna be the death of me i swear. Its absolutley over run with flower and leaves. Future Scrogs will not be last second decisions.

Sugar leaves and newer fans are starting to get frosty already and the smell has ramped up a little bit since last night. This shit is gonna be so loud and greasy.

I noticed the first signs of tip burn today so i dialed back my EC .2 running at 1.8 EC currently. Ph remains stable at 5.8 - (6.0) - 6.2

@Freebirdmikes thanks man.

I didnt. I just bent the tops lower than the lateral growth and directed new growth where i wanted it.

Again i apologize for not having many pics up to this point.

Here is a journal i started that will cover everything as i go, if youd like to follow along.

Moved the s11 ionbeams to the edge of the canopy to make up for some lost ppfd. Getting 1k to 1.1k now up from around 650 to 750.

Think i finally decided what im doing with the s11 ionbeams for now. This poor Gelato in the corner has been getting light neglect for about a month only getting about 600ppfd at most. Got her up to 1k across the board now.

In other news, my Zweet Inzanity is progressing even further into mag deficiency. Ive been feeding half str fox farms the entire grow because ive had bad issues in the past with burning the fuck out of my plants on full str. That being said ive been following the same line of thinking using the fox farm calmag that is now part of the official feeding regimin. Which was never part of the actual schedule in the 3 different hydroponic schedules theyve released in the past year. The massive EC brought on with the full str, full calmag just screams issues to me, but at the same time im having issues not using it. Who has had extremely successful Fox Farm Hydroponic grows, no deficiencies and did you go full/full and just flush as per schedule to remove the salts. I know im over thinking it, because the scam artists at fox farms already have it figured out. Either way after this grow im done with ff trio.

Beautiful plant buddy.
I use jack321 in my hydroponics system.
Pretty much trouble free so far.
