Full grow journal in my signature, a lot of pages to get through lol, I think it starts from around page 40.
Growing LA Confidential now in a sort of dodgy Mainline under 400w, seriously strange sort of growth, worth looking at! All in the 250w Hash Bomb grow thread in my signature. The Hash Bomb grow is also worth checking out, great yield for a 250w. 1G per Watt.

I ran into quite a few problems with this grow, I broke a main arm, Which never healed, I wasn't able to be around for the grow daily because of work, I was working away for a week and tending to her at weekends. Due to this I was unable to control EC/CF, she got nute burn in the last few weeks. Air movement was shite and I ended up with a lot of budrot, I lost at least half ounce to bud rot.
So I think if I was able to be around everyday and make sure everything was tip top, I would have yielded 500-600g and shamed some 600w growers lol
Have a look at my thread any ways, I'm always posting stuff, hopefully you can learn something from me, or you can teach me summat!
Happy growing.

Ok, seeds ordered, Big Buddha Blue Cheese and Barneys Farm Critical Kusk, so now I am preparing the cabinet and getting ready for my first vertical grow.
Have changed the trellis design due to a conflict of space,
and am in the process of cleaning the cabinet, getting it ready for accept the plants. Cleaning the Mylar sides, washing and repainting the bottom, thinking going with white rubberized paint.
Am thinking of going back to a 4" fan and filter, would like to mount the filter on the outside of the cabinet, just not sure how to do it yet.
Canna Coco and CC nutes
Not sure of size of container, maybe some thoughts from you guys/girls, think two or three gallon smart pots.
Still am not sure if I will go drip or Blumats, leaning towards drip.
Ordered a new high end 400W HPS lamp. Well be running bare bulb, screen wrapped to protect the lamp and prevent any fires, this will also be a vertical grow.
Three to four plants around the lamp.
I would like some input from you smart folks who have run this method and can provide some input.
Thanks and wish me luck on this epic journey!

I don't know much about vertical yet, but isn't that too many plants for a single 400W?
And how do you plan to locate the plants around the light?
Just wondering!
GR
It's on a mover rofl just wait imma add another 20 in a week or so
Vertical is 40% less efficient than horizontal elegedly because the light is emitted from the sides of the bulb but I don't have a robot stick for my mover yet
Eventually I plan on upgrading to spyder 1200

I guess I know less about vertical than I thought, can you please show me some pics that explain this.
How are you going to use an LED vertical, I would be very interested in you method. I started with LED's and think they are the future.
Thanks
GR
If I were using leds I'd go with 3 300 watt panels on 3 foot movers led will not be hung vertical as the ones I've seen can only be hung hotizontal
This help yu out gr865 here's a pic of my seedling that will be added to the tenT in a week or two I will also be adding a trellis for training soon enough butt do you see bow how I can put 40 plants under a 400 watt light in a 4x8 tent now

Nice job my friend, for what it's worth, I would steer clear of CKS.....I'm Canadian and have had males show up in more than one pack of those jokers feminine seeds....
