can i get a vote which would be better for a 12/12ft , 7ft high sealed room with 4 1000watts, dehumidifier,24000btu ac,and co2. i will be using soil ammended with botanicare nutes.. i will have several strains going at once mostly indicas. i cant decide since the ceiling is kinda low if i should go with vertical lighting and positioning pots stadium style or just use aircooled reflectors and keep the canopy low, i figuerd using aircooled reflectors will help with temps which i know will be my main problem, but i like the idea of vertical stadium growing and the effiency in space used. it.. please n e one with expercience with both styles of growing let me know what they think..

Hi,

Do a search for username 'Heath Robinson' here, hes a master of the vertical grow method :-) I've been following him for several years (on the old HG420 forum and now rollitup) and he has produced the most amazing results, a real pro and his threads are very detailed.

One of my personal favourite grow threads that I recall was a guy with a 250 HPS hanging vertically from the ceiling, no reflector and with 6 sativas standing in a circle a round it... you should have seen them, just beautiful!!

Might help you to decide?

They do well with a high volume of small plants. If you want to grow 24 4' plants you are going to have a problem. Although, raising your perimeter a foot or two can still help.
