Filet SKROG 240 x 120 cm
A 240 x 120 cm SCROG net: a screen stretched horizontally above the plants in a rectangular grow space of the same footprint. Shoots are guided through the mesh as they grow, spreading sideways instead of climbing. The result is a flat canopy that receives light evenly, and heavy tops carried by the screen through flowering rather than bending the branches that hold them.
SCROG net 240 x 120 cm – trellis screen for a rectangular grow space
A 240 x 120 cm SCROG net stretches horizontally above the plants in a grow space of the same footprint. Shoots are guided through the mesh as they grow, spreading sideways rather than climbing, which produces a flat canopy under even light distribution.
SCROG and SOG are not the same method
The two get confused constantly, though they are opposite choices. Sea of Green means packing in many small plants and harvesting one top per plant quickly — no screen is involved. Screen of Green does the reverse: fewer plants, a longer vegetative stage, and lateral branches spread across a net until a single plant carries ten or more equivalent tops. This is a net for the second method. The 240 x 120 cm size matches a tent such as the Hydro Shoot 240 x 120 x 200; for a square space, the 120 x 120 cm net is the size that fits.
Working with it
- Fit the screen before flowering, roughly twenty to thirty centimetres above the pots rather than later
- Tuck shoots horizontally through the mesh as soon as they clear it, revisiting every few days
- Stop tucking once stretch tails off, and let the tops rise from that point on
- Leave the screen in place through flowering: it carries the weight that would otherwise bend the branches
A long, narrow format takes more care to fit than a square one: anchor all four sides and pull diagonally so the middle does not sag under load. Shipped from Belgium throughout the Benelux via plantandflower.be.
When should the net go up?
Before the plants have grown through it, so towards the end of the vegetative stage. Laying a net over a finished canopy does not work: it would mean bending branches that have already stiffened. Fit it while the shoots are still just underneath, then start tucking straight away.
How many plants go under a 240 x 120 cm net?
Fewer than you would run without one. The whole point of SCROG is that each plant fills more area, so a handful spread out properly covers the same plane as a far larger number grown upright. The exact count depends on how long you veg for and on the variety.
Can the net be reused?
Yes, provided stems are worked free at harvest rather than cut through the mesh. In practice most growers cut just below the screen and clear the remnants afterwards. A shake out is usually all it takes before the net goes back up for the next cycle.
