I know, I wanted way more vertical growth. I think I did screw myself trying to do a stadium trellis/vertical combo. I flipped as soon as they hit the trellis, which is very low, causing most of my growth to be horizontal. You're saying to let them get 3' tall before I flip, THEN dress them...

Week three update! Just started week three, and the stretch was brutal! Very labor intensive. You gotta spend an hour a day at least just dressing this crap into the trellis. I am finding the chicken wire very effective though and am no longer intimidated by it, it provides a lot of options...

Wish I had the funds :( this is bare bones, I'm hardly making rent right now (I didn't do a run all winter)

Definitely, stick around! I'm realizing already that chicken wire is going to be brutal. I wanted to use 4'x8' rebar sheets, which have 4" gaps, but I couldn't afford it. I'm alredlady starting my "next time" shopping list :p I'm not sure if it can be used in coco, I assume it can be but...

Here it is with the trellis installed and the HPS in place (two out of three that is). I'm very excited to do it this way, I just helped a friend harvest who did the vertical trellis with horizontal hoods (dutch style) and achieved 8 lbs off of only 12 plants under 3600 watts (6x600w). If I...

They are Hortilife iPower bulbs all around. That's a very good point and I'm going to research it now! (Edit: yes they specify they can be hung vertical on their website) good looking out! Upon further inspection, there was some sort of arc that was formed that burned through the metal of the...

Yeah, those are MH 600's but I just popped in the HPS 600s after the photo. One of my HPS's started leaking and flaming like an arc welder as soon as I plugged it in! Scary. To answer your concern, I had raised the bulbs for the photo/installing trellis. I also wasn't too concerned with...

Hey folks- long time viewer, first time poster. Hope you enjoy my upcoming experience as much as I do ;) I made this thread to document my new grow room setup. I am using an 18 site CAP ebb and gro bucket system, (3)600 watt bare bulbs hanging vertically, and a vertical trellis. I have co2...

Subbed. I am almost ready to begin flower in an 1800 watt (3x600w) CAP ebb and grow bucket system with 18 sites- 6 Blue Dream and 12 J1 (Jack herrer). All three bulbs will be hanging vertically, with the trellis being a 6'x6'x6' inverted semisphere. I'm hoping to get it so tall the buds block...

Thats probably because 1x1=1 and 56,000x1=56,000, so that first foot is already assumed as the measuring distance in the equation. Algebra I handing out pearls all up in your grille.

This explanation shows optimal conditions for any room. Too often people just build a room that feels bright enough and 'slap' their lights as close as possible without burning the plants, when in reality, any good engineer knows that you work backwards through a problem. I tsk tsk tsk your...
