JimmyT said:

Not that the lights are extremely far apart but a light mover could be a great solution for that. Either that or two extra lights/reflectors. Hell of a room to play with. Looking good

Yeah, I am not too worried about it...each light is going to cover a 3' x 4' area...600watt/12 sq feet=50watts per sq ft, so should it be fine right???? (in reality though I may move each of them a few inches because I am anal an want them perfectly center)

thats what i wass thinking,looks like the lights are going to cover that space just fine,i was thinking 3x3.5 so you would have a lil room to move around.
and if you have put all that work in to your room,im sure youll do just fine with your plants.

There def won't be much room to move around (1.5' length wise and width wise) but there will be four tables each of which will be on wheels so I will always be able to have 1.5' anywhere I need to get around.

My cab stinks to high heaven at the moment...I have had to tie my plants up to the shelf attachments as a few of them are ridiculously top heavy and keep falling over...ffs. All the culprits are tied and clipped...most of these girls could be taken now but will flush again and let run through. Everything is going a nice shade of yellow as those babies suck up for all their lifes worth. I have already turned the MH light off so it's just the hps for the last week. Once the top shelf is done I may just turn off that hps light for the last week or so of the cheese. I guess taking that over 10 weeks is going to get the best results? (Mr West our Exodus Cheese Head please chime in and confirm bru?)

My girls are 4 weeks old today. ill have pics and a video later today.

very healthy girls heads up

all looking very healthy and tasty guys

What up 600? I've been pretty sick for a few days now but still reading people's posts because I'm a retard and can't seem to stay away from RIU. I just haven't been posting that much because I feel like I'm going to die, LOL. The wifey convinced me to go to the Dr today so I'll be calling in a few once they're open.

I think she's making me go more for her than me because I'm sure I'm keeping her awake since I haven't slept more than a few hours total since Friday.

Anyway, I updated my thread with a bunch of pics last night and thought I'd throw a few up in here to share.

pic 1 is the 3 Afghan that are about 4 weeks of flower

pic 2 is the 2 Autos (Haze and RR)

pic 3 is from left to right 3 Raspberry cough plants that are clones of the tall one and the closest one that you can only see a bit of is a 12/12 from seed Cataract Kush

pic 4 is my seedlings that are 2 DOG, a DNA Headband that got burned by the FFOF so I transplanted it into the party cup with seed starter mix and it's recovering very well.

Pic 5 is a Jack Herer on the left, a Headband, a Cat Kush behind it and the little one is another Headband.

Just realized I missed the pic of the tall ass Raspbery cough plant so I'll post that up too.

thats the dedication the 600 likes to see Dez down with man flu but still updating his grow! ladies look the picture of health

Here's the Raspberry Cough. It was the same size as the Afghan plants when I stiuck it into 12/12 but look how tall the SOB is. It took a while to mature before starting to flower so it's really only been showing flowers for about 3 weeks or so.

Thanks Don, appreciate it.

That RC plant stands just over 5' from the floor and it's in a 3gal nursery pot. I'm really interested to see if it puts on weight in addition to it's height. If so, it'll be a great yielder. Right now I have concern about the four RC clones I put in there since they're all bigger than their mom was when I stuck her in there. I'm wondering if they'll get as tall as she is or possibly even taller.

so should it be fine right????

There's no doubt it's going to be more than fine. It's just that I'm a stickler for extreme light penetration plus light movers allow you to get real close to the canopy and removes the shades. Either way, you have a sick ass setup for sure. Oh the pounds you'll see

My best grows per watt have always come from a 600 on a mover... I'm trying to beat it now with a vertical setup, but I don't think I can.

I hear ya. Wish I could load it up or do movers but right now I am quickly approaching the budget limit (at least I feel like I don't want to spend any more), but next round we will see what happens. Thanks for the comments.

Thanks for the post OB1...please do share your vertical grow with us. As a vertical grower I am very interested to see.

Dez: As a suggestion, I would look at getting hooks of some sort so that when your girls get big and all the branches are growing towards the light, they don't fall over as they have a tendency to do just before they need watered. A few hooks strategically placed now so that you can string up or attach however you want, will save you hassles when the cab is full. HOpe you are feling better soon.

DST

Thanks DST. I have been planning on doing something along those lines ever since I saw a pic of one of yours and how it grew towards the light soo much. I've already had the Haze auto fall over once and after I put it in the 5gal bucket it had more of a tendency to fall over so I loosely tied the main cola to the shelf above/behind it. Now other branches are growing towards the light in the same manner so I had to secure the netpot to the lid of the bucket and run a strap from the side of the bucket u and around the main stem about 6' above the bucket for a little extra support.
The Raspberry is now leaning towards the lights pretty good too so I def need to something soon. Especially since it's only in a 3gal pot (get's pretty light when it's time to water).

I just hadn't decided how I was going to do it in an efficient manner. Thanks for the hooks idea, sounds perfect. then I can just tie the branches to the hooks with string, ribbon, whatever...
I'll pick some up on my way home from the Dr. in a bit. Speaking of which, I'd better get to gettin or I'll be late.

Peace 600.

I use cup hooks screwed into the celling with multiple yo yo's hanging off them and hook them around the heavy branches works well to

my shelfing has slot in arms so also has the slots all the way up the rod attached to the wall, and I just tie off round them. Need to check on them before lights out...see you guys later.
