Thanks yeah I did a little research but thanks for breaking it down barney style for me! Once I get more experience under my belt and money, I'd love to try like an octagon grow room vertical grow. Its seems promising!Vertical growing is hanging your light vertically, instead of horizontally. The essence is that if you are restricted in your footprint size, then growing vertical opens up the footprint creating a larger canopy space to work with, as the light shines out and around like a lighthouse, not only down like in a normal "horizontal" set up. Look at the pictures in the thread and you will understand.....
Hey y'all know how I dip... If any of yall even remember me (I'm lookin at you jig). Just wanted to announce to any of those who do recall my existence, I'm moving to WA to jump in on the I-502 industry, we're building our own facility already bought 3 lots and will be doing a pretty sick setup, I look forward to keeping yall and RIU in general posted with developments and pics as things proceed, it's a magical frickin journey and a major blessing to my life and my family.
Lose both the cooltube and the hood, buy vertical socket cordsets for $30 apiece, a roll of mesh fencing from Home dePot for $35 and you're in business. AC shouldn't be necessary until hot weather hits in June. You have time for a run before then, which if it goes well would buy the second AC y'all need.I was asked to build a small grow by a friend and I started it yesterday. I miss vertical so bad I'm considering building him a vertical setup. So far I hung him a veg light and scoped out his ventilation options and he'd be good to go with a 4' diameter vert cage in soil with a 1K light. Only thing making me hesitate is I want to run the vertical one myself. We have enough equipment for two grows right now but only one A/C unit, one hood and one cooltube.

Halfway thru my first vertical experiment, I scrapped my horizontal room for good and never looked back.
Now I'm rebuilding my 4x4 silos (4' tall by 4' diameter) into Super Silos, with twice the light and twice the surface area.
