10,000 watt Google Sketchup design inside... 47' gooseneck trailer - opinions wanted.

Ok... Let's try this again...

47' trailer... The attached images are drawn to scale using google sketchup.

My challenges here are:

1.) Height (trailer has about 6' 4" total height to work with.
2.) Width is a little over 7' except at the wheel wells.

Here are the pics:

First is using large reflectors, I just don't see this happening...





This looks a little more promising:















Also the sketchup file in case anyone want to download google sketchup and play with it...View attachment Sketchup template for 47 fy trailer by watercooled.zip

just for those people that don't have sketchup you may want to take a few stills of diff angles and upload them... looks sick though... wish i could answer your questions but you're past my experience level here... good luck sir

sweet!! now i look like a douche... lol

that vertical setup looks sick... walls of green... are the reservoirs and stuff going in the trailer as well?

don't forget to leave room to walk

I don't really get the 2nd set of drawings... are the tubes ventilation? What are your plans for getting around in there? 7' doesn't seem like a lot of room to me if you center the plants or do 4 around a vertical. Are you doing soil or hydro? Buckets or tables? Sog? Have you considered going with the original overhead idea and putting the lights off center to leave room for a clear walkway on the opposite side?

Sorry for all the questions, this sounds like a fun one!

Yep, Left 2' walk way. I plan on keeping the rez inside the trailer, first one will be in the back against the back wall in the walkway, the other in the attic.

No, you don't looks like a douche... I do, Should have posted pics to begin with. Thanks for the idea.

In this pic you can see the walk way next to the PVC tubes...

The second set of drawings are a vertical setup using PVC tubes and making them constant flow.

I've now posted a pic showing the walkway.

I don't think we are going to go overhead as I can't find a way to put a lot of wattage. I think the vertical setup is going to be the best bet for yield in this case.

As for the tubes, bare tubes or cool tubes will work. I can setup some creative ducting options, no problem....

Thanks for the questions.

nah i's jus joshin' ya... lol

seriously though i love this idea... can't wait to see what comes...

Man I'll tune into anything vertical. Funny watching people put a 200 dollar bulb in a hood.

is this what they meant by "the hanging gardens of Babylon"? subscribed oh and that sketch-up thanks for the headsup. i'm going to have a play been looking for something like this ... heres the link to the download http://sketchup.google.com/download/gsu.html

do it vert. Stadium style. 5 rows each side and 1 row on floor with a walk way on either side. Do a drip system@!

Give me specs... What spacing between the rows? only 1'? What about plants, right next to each other or 24" spacing?

I've started drawing it, it looks better then this PVC idea, but I'm thinking 3 rows max.

Y ou should check out tow and grow to get some more ideas. They do some crazy shit in towable grow rooms. Self contained except for power.

I was thinking about it for a new room but squashed it on the 30k price tag for just a 20ft trailer.

cool concept though

^^^ Crazy! This trailer is 47' and cost under 5k used.
Too bad 15k worth of equipment is still needed to make it run right!

Just checked out there site... VERY COOL!!! I've been told if this trailer works out well a new 50' gooseneck with 42' of floor space would can be custom ordered for the same customer... Definately some good ideas in there trailers.

I like the vertical for lighting, but wouldnt you be limited to short indica strains

You just roll horses for courses. (N+1) = surrounding the plants with light not the lights with plants. Click this link to see my 10ft trailer.

i really like the idea a lot, but I think you could use some co2 in your blueprint. I think that, along with some fans to get those babies moving around a little will really do your setup some justice! but really a nice idea all the way around. Very happy to see someone thinking outside the box. I find a lot of growers on this site struggle with the misuse of allotted space. bravo.

Haven't decided if CO2 will be used on this one... we'll see. Still experimenting with what setup to use.

once agian watercooled you come at us with a crazy sick setup idea. this is going to be a fun thread!! Just love the idea of a mobile grow room, as long as no one easle tows it away that would suck need a ancor for it .

I personal wouldnt go with the vertical flow tube, its a great idea but for the room you have i dont think it would work best

I would say the four level stadium would work great with all your lights hanging vertical infront of them and some over top, then to try and keep them small i would make some cages like DaGamblers
