I guess it's time to introduce myself over here in the Vertical Growing section of the forum. Typically I have been lurking around in the "LED and Other" section of the site but I have decided to give some vertical growing a try. I am always keeping my eye on the other lighting techs but for getting things rolling I will be using all HID for now. Waiting on you @ttystikk to show us if cobs are the way for vertical!
Ok, I went from a 3x4 multi-level veg / pre-flower box with a dedicated final flower 5x5 which will now be a 4x5x8ft tall single level veg with a 5x5x8ft tall final flower box.
My plan is to have 4 vert monsters in the 5x5 at any given time. Staggering my timing so 2 will be harvested approximately monthly and two new vegged up beasts swapped in.
So it will be 6 big ass DWC plant sites. I will be using 10gal Rubbermaid Brute Waste Bins for my dwc modules.
2 cans with plants and a 3rd as a controller for each pair of plants. That gives me 23gal of nutrient for 2 plants.
This way I can gave independent control of the solution of each pair of plants depending on where they are in there stage of growth - veg, early flower, finishing, etc.
I am running a 600W Hortilux Blue MH for veg hung vertical in kitbashed china cool tube made into a heat extractor vert top hat. I know the Horti Blue is not supposed to operate vertically but I am trying it anyways
At this stage I am still constructing and have not gutted out my flower box for reworking till the current harvest comes down. I will be running a pair of cool tubes stacked vertically with 600W Hortilux Super HPS's.
I want to be able to fully manage heat and have no need for a/c with the location I am at.
Veg DWC fully set up tonight and need to get working on my trellises. I plant to pull the lid with trellis from the veg dwc and slap it right on over to the flower box when the time comes
Here's a few pics of this mess getting rolling
