0.000 HBDImproved the netting on the cannabis plants
<center> I was unhappy with the results of my previous netting put up on my outdoor cannabis grow. The four foot by four foot (4x4) netting was far too small. So I needed to find a better solution. Going online I looked for fifteen foot by fifteen foot (15x15) nets for cannabis. But was unable to find them. But I did find some five by fifteen foot (5x15) nets. https://i.postimg.cc/BnX9N2Xw/PXL-20240803-145809658.jpg So I ordered three of them and planned on attaching them together, giving me the size of netting I wanted. It may be more assembly but it should be the right size and just what I need. I found two sizes, so I will assemble the larger square netting first. And then the smaller square netting for the top layer later on. https://i.postimg.cc/WzwTLjvW/PXL-20240803-133929329.jpg Once they arrived and I laid them out, I had some work to do. I need to tie each loose string together to connect the netting. https://i.postimg.cc/NfbBdgbL/PXL-20240803-140500025.jpg It took me around 30 minutes for each, I was expecting longer honestly. Really glad I had that blue foam to sit on. https://i.postimg.cc/TP5x2nxW/PXL-20240803-140512173.jpg Sitting down I tie each string together and go down the line until the nets are completely fastened. https://i.postimg.cc/gkGGywVf/PXL-20240803-142544784.jpg A little later and I had a 15x15 foot net ready to go. https://i.postimg.cc/0yQx3LHn/PXL-20240803-142553728.jpg Now I just need to carry it out to the enclosure with a little help. https://i.postimg.cc/PxGjCNfV/PXL-20240803-145640048.jpg After getting it all strung up I came back to take some pictures. It looks much better now. https://i.postimg.cc/TwrXgGpd/PXL-20240803-145659840.jpg I am glad I went with the 15x15 design, fit over the plants perfectly. https://i.postimg.cc/J0xVYqNS/PXL-20240803-145711184.jpg There is very little overhang of the netting. And should fill out when the plants grow out more horizontally. https://i.postimg.cc/7PnkLxFX/PXL-20240803-145725363.jpg I feel more confident this netting will work better. https://i.postimg.cc/6pgsPTZ6/PXL-20240803-145814839.jpg It really contains the plants better, the 4x4 nettings just laid over the top of them for the most part. But with this I can train them toward the middle hopefully and really fit out the canopy using the SCOG growing technique. https://i.postimg.cc/Y9B5pV8J/PXL-20240803-145816914.jpg We can see the knots holding together the netting, really thankful the manufacturer left some so I could tie them together. Otherwise I would have needed to use zip ties or something like that. https://i.postimg.cc/hGmFRg8L/PXL-20240803-145828720.jpg Next is the top later for the SCROG netting. I need to make it just like I did this one. It has smaller squares compared to the bottom layer. https://i.postimg.cc/rmGvzJPz/PXL-20240803-145844812.jpg Its great to see the plants starting to flower, if they get really top heavy I will be ready. https://i.postimg.cc/4yJjc9DP/PXL-20240803-145929086.jpg Two of the four are shorter for some reason, so they have not popped up from the netting yet but should very soon. https://i.postimg.cc/NjrC5DyY/PXL-20240803-145932952.jpg The two taller ones are popping through the netting, so I had to find a balance. If they were all the same height I would have put it up a little higher. https://i.postimg.cc/8Pc0VNN7/PXL-20240803-145949842.jpg Hopefully they like their netting. https://i.postimg.cc/fy2q0gjW/PXL-20240803-150009662.jpg Soon we will see more bud growth and hopefully they will stretch out and get much taller. https://i.postimg.cc/xTZFfh1t/PXL-20240803-150022475.jpg It has been fun growing outdoors, I feel like we are about half way through the cycle right now. Looking forward to trying to grow some auto flowers next year and get two harvests in one outdoor season. https://i.postimg.cc/QMG45757/PXL-20240803-150023903.jpg I should go through and pull out those dead leaves. https://i.postimg.cc/tTD2Lmcd/PXL-20240803-150034341.jpg Next is to assemble the top netting and put that up, which will be the complete SCROG setup to hold them in place. I am sure having the bottom layer is helpful on its own. But if they get as tall as I think they will, they will need a second layer of netting to support them. ## Previous post on this project: https://peakd.com/hive-151602/@solominer/netting-up-the-cannabis-plants </center>
