If i were to grow vert how would i do it?Would it b e the most effective use of space,light and air?
Just thinking how i would do it.Id use a vert bulb with a parabolic hood mounted someplace above the light but high enough to allow the light spread from the hood.
Plants would be set under the hood and bulb to use the space under the bulb and staggered upward in a stadium out from their .The plants would be pulled over and died down the allow the side branch's to grow up allowing more bud sites on TERMINAL shoots,instead of side branchs that do not contain as much energy for bud development.Tying the plant side ways will pump more hormones to the side branch's acting as terminal shoots.Plants would be under the bulb and all around the bulb, canopy management,trimming would be done to the lower branch's forming nothing but terminal shoots going up .Everything would be covered in orca with curtains hung behind the plants on the outside to reflect as much light back in as possible.
That being said..You will lose the intensity and focus of the bulb.Like a flash light.The light hits a reflective cone intensifying it and focusing the beam where you want it to go.
Some flash lights you can get even ajust the spread and intensity of the beam of light.
This is what a hood does for your light..it focus's the beam of light and intensify's the light into the target area.
The whole idea of a vert grow is to maximize the use of space and increase production? or am i wrong? apparently im wrong?
But yea..his shit is fucked up..from go to whoa he has been giving them way to much nitrogen enriched food.
The sides of his branchs are burned up. the light is not contained,.Use of space is poor at best.
And he asked for advice,
Would you all have me lie to the man and tell him his shit is great?
So far everything i have told the man makes logical sense. correct?
Drek has never done anything to me to cause me to fuck the dude over with bad opinions and advice.Matter of fact he has been very gracious.
He can take my advice or not as he sees fit.But at least someone needs to say hay dude..There is a better way.
There are people on here..good, bad, intentional or otherwise giving out BAD advice to people and they are hurting their plants.Like blasting nitrogen to your plants all the way through bloom.
Does anyone here think that the nutritional needs of the plant do not change through its growing cycle?
Then what would make you think blasting it with nitrogen all the way through bloom is a good thing?
Come on people you need to learn to smell bull shit when you see it.If it does not sound logical it probably isnt..If it sounds logical and has logic behind the opinion or basis of fact..it probably is.
