Another Update on the friends flower room. Nice to be able to post some porn again. This is the same Blue Kush as mine, just doesnt have the CO2 yet and is under a Hornilux Enhanced spectrum bulb. They are currently 6 weeks into flower.

Blue Kush Day 28
And here's the other side. They are at 18 days flower and doing well. You can see the widow closeups in the last couple of pics and its clear she wants a little more food than the rest. Cant wait for 3 weeks from now when the whole screen is filled out and in full bloom.

Blue Kush Day 36
And here's the Blue Kush and White Widow at day 26
here's a couple of close-ups of the Widow
I am also doing an expieriment to see if trimming under the screen really helps. On the side that is further along, I trimmed nothing. Only removing dead leaves and on the other side, I trimmed everything. I have always trimmed underneath, but was curious if not trimming would give the plant more resistence to problems with more lower leaves to destroy. Of course, it is said that doing this will decrease my yield since trimming is supposed to increse it. So now, time will tell.
Here is the untrimmed side
and here is the side that is trimmed

Everything is looking great, A+.
I don't know how much more the trimmed side will yield, but the buds will be bigger in my experience.

Looks seriously perfect. It's just like my scrog, but 10x bigger!
I half trimmed under the screen. the bottom 3/4 of the exposed branches were cleaned, but then I got lazy. If stuff starts dying I'll just remove it all.
Your Blue Kush is about 4-5 days ahead of me. I've been watching man. I think there isn't much to say usually because you seem to have it figured out, I don't see any problems.

Thanks Inverted. I have always wondered why my threads seem to get a ton of traffic but very little comments. Just love these scrog's. How far along is yours?

I flowered on Feb. 1st, so 33 days I think.
Yeah I think people really don't have anything to pick apart w/ your grows and a lot of it is explained. It's a VERY thorough journal.

Ok. Sorry for the lack of an update this week. I took the pics as usual on monday. Was busy that night and didnt get to do it, and then disaster struck on tuesday and I've been preventing the apocalypse since then(not really). I woke up Tuesday and came to check on my room, and the first thing I see is my CO2 is at 450ppm. Figured no big deal, been about 3 weeks since I changed it(usual time frame), and ran out to exchange the tank. Get home, hook it all up, and fire it up. But it just wouldnt light. I sat there cycling it on and off and double checking the fittings, but nothing would make the sucker light. During the troubleshooting, I elbowed my green light an shattered it(just made my mood that much better). Got a hold of HydroInnovations and went through the problem with them and came to the conclusion that I would have to send it to them. On a side note, their customer service has been great so far, we will see how it continuse. I told them that there was probly some condensation damage(which voids the warranty) but she said to send it in anyways since it seemed like my problem wasnt related, and even if it was, 80% of the time they fix it anyway. So I was pleasantly suprised by that. So I go back into my room to finally get around to checking the girls and I see a few mites crawling around on some of the middle leaves. This just about put me over the edge. So I decided it was time for all out warefare. Went to the grow store and picked up some industrial strength, greenhouse bug bombs to hit my veg and flower rooms with. Set it off on tuesday night when the lights went off, making sure all of my fans and lights were off first(your house might explode if you dont). They seemed to work very well and I will be setting off a second round tomorrow night just to be safe. Just as a word of caution, make sure to follow the instruction and dont get this shit on you or inhale it. I got a small whiff of it when I did it(very small) and had no problems initially. But after about 3hrs, i had a headache and a stomachache that was so bad it made my back hurt. Took the time to look up symptoms of poisoning and tratment and i fit the bill. I just took a shot of Pepto and drank a glass of water and the pain dulled enough for me to go to sleep. I felt fine the next morning. Keep in mind that re-exposure can cause the same thing and the insecticide takes 3 days to 2 weeks to break down. So follow all safety measures while working in your room for the next 2 weeks. This may seem a little extreme, and if both sides were going to be done in a week or two, I'd have let it go, but the right side still has about a month and I know the mite would reak havok on my girls and it was too late into flower to spray them with my normal organocide. All of these mite problems were caused by a stray egg that must have made it through the spraying in my veg room. I did a ton of back and forth work in both rooms and noticed the nect day that there was a very small ammount of them on a single plant, but it was enough for me to accidenally ttransfer them to my flowering room. So as far as mite control, be very through, I was in the flower room, but nowhere near as much in the veg room. Lesson learned. And enough talking, on with the pics fom monday....

Looking very perfect as usual. Sorry to hear about the mites. The only signs of life in my box are the occasional asian beetle and these tiny moth looking guys, they are slightly larger than gnats but don't seem to do any damage. I had some box elder bugs in the fall but they are gone now.
From your experience did you notice longer than advertised flowering times under your scrog?
