also it should be worth mentioning , now a second bud site with a much lower ppfd and about 2 -3inches lower beginning to purple
So purple leaves indicates a problem and not a trait? I have a lot more to learn

it can show signs of the light being a bit too close but it is also a genetic thing so that’s kinda what i was asking here with just the one reply
It looks like it’s showing its fall colors. They are going to be beautiful.

you asked, “what do you mean praying ?”
Fan leaves and others “fold-Upwards”.
Raising light works well.
My HLG are at 20-25 inches.
at 15 they pray, for sure.

That’s genetics right there. Differently, it can also be caused by an over abundance of P. That cause a purple’ish blue hugh on the leaves.

@Chaddyboy you asked about the cut list and whatnot for my SCROG frames.
SCROG Bill Of Materials and Cut List
This design is specific to growing in 10 gallon pots (fabric and plastic)
NOTE: Adjust sizes to meet your specific needs
Base Unit
(1 ea) 22" X 22" X 1/2" plywood
(5 ea) 1" swivell casters
(4 ea) 1/2" PVC 90 degree elbow
(8 ea) 1/2" PVC “T”
(8 ea) 1/2" PVC 45 degree elbow
(4 ea) 3/4" cross
(8 ea) 3/4->1/2 reducer bushing
(8 ea) 1/2" PVC pipe 9" long - lower base frame
(4 ea) 1/2" PVC pipe 20 1/2" long - upper base frame supports
(8 ea) 1/2" PVC pipe 6 3/4" long - upper base frame
(8 ea) 1/2" PVC pipe 3 1/2" long - upper base frame
SCROG Frame
(4 ea) 1/2" PVC “T”
(8 ea) 1/2" PVC 45 degree elbow
(8 ea) 1/2" PVC pipe 14" long - SCROG frame
(8 ea) 1/2" PVC pipe 4" long - SCROG frame
(4 ea) 1/2" PVC pipe 16" long - SCROG frame vertical supports
You will need about four 10’ pieces of 1/2" PVC pipe for each setup that you build.
Four of the casters will be attached near the corners of the plywood base and the fifth caster will be attached in the center of the plywood and will have washers placed between the caster flange and the plywood to make the center wheel a tiny bit taller than the corner wheels. This is done to make rotating easier.
The “SCROG frame vertical supports” have 1/4" holes drilled every 4" for the adjustment pins.
Use twine or string for the actual screen. Either install 1/2" sheet metal screws or drill holes every 3" - 4" for the twine/string.
One last thing that I did was to put screws at each “corner” around both the frames and strung twine very tightly to hold everything together. I did this rather than glueing so that I could easily modify or store the SCROG frames.
