Thanks Doobs, Whodat, ghb, she sure has filled out, foxtailing has started as well. And she smells hella skunky funky.

ghb, some adjustments where made and more will be done soon when the 8inch beastly cool tubes arrive.;)

where the hell do you get 8" cool tubes? sounds pretty epic.

do you reckon that will eliminate any temp problems? an 8 inch fan should easily cool 3 lights in short sequence i would have thought

In case anybody needs more boredom in their life, Phase-1 of my webcam-enabled cyborg grow box is online through Yahoo Messenger under the Yahoo ID: Doobie_Brother69
This is just a first test.
I'll work on better viewing angle & image as time goes by.

*edit:
I have to close up the grow box for lights out, but will have it back online after 7pm (Pacific coast time).

I have found a company in China that made them with a batwing attachment. I got in touch with the sales dept, sent them the specs of what I wanted and they said, "ok, will cost you 25 dolla!" And I said, cool and then we went from there. The shipping cost is three X the manufacture cost. I have been thinking of getting a larger order and shipping in bulk and by sea which will make the units far more affordable. No one I have seen in Europe runs the 8inch's. I may ask Breeders Boutique if they will sell them through the website. We shall see.....

Smokin?! Get Down Tonight!!! Well Alright! bongsmilie

Love that song Doob. Hell, love that band. Glad to see your all good Bro.

Whodat. Marshall Tucker is great and I really like Allman Bros. Rock on.

DST. the FSMS is looking great. I have a bushy Jack Hammer tied back something like that on a little wire garden trellis thing I got at the Dollar store. It's doing the trick nicely. I believe yours is behind the net and mine is in front tied back but that's cause it was an afterthought.

Good day all and enjoy.

Off for another session of Javaganja. Just a part of my Wake n Bake day

Okay, heres a brain teaser for you guys to ponder about. I was going through this vertical scrog thing in my head. Now we all know that with a scrog we rely on spreading apical dominance across all the tops of the screen. Now this is easily done using gravity and a normal downward pointing light source. So here's my can't compute point. With a vertical light, and a vertical screen, is apical dominance actually being spread like in a normal screen? When I look at the plant it exhibits the same look as a normal plant finishing, i.e the bottom leaves turning lighter and moving upwards. So is gravity making the screen less effective than in a horizontal screen. My initial though of using the screen was purely due with controling the plant and the cheese strain being fairly viney in its structure, in a hope that the same thing would happen as in a screen.

Anyway, just something I was thinking about...any views????

I think it would work personally but it would require some assistance and management. I would love to see you try it!

I had a long ass response to that, DST, and then erased it all for fear of sounding like a total moron.

I'm not sure if it's gravity... I think it'd just be the fact that being trained to be flat vertically is keeping more to the plants normal growth pattern, where as with the horizontal you're-- ah fuck it. I can't explain myself right now.

I will say that I've noticed the same thing with my Cheesey scrogs, and I scrog'd em for the same reason you did... because the little bashtards can get outta control, and they need someone to keep them in line... like a screen. Definitely seems like it's not performing the same as a horizontal based one what I've seen. . .

None of this probably helped! :peace:

i think no matter what, the plant knows where its roots are and where its heads at! :D lol reminds me of something

True, but you need to try growing vertically, it opens your mind up to what can be done with plants. I still think those Omega grow systems are the shit, the lights are horizontal but the space usage is the same which is what I am into. Just uses gravity to get things pumped.

I would think that you could super crop them 90 degrees very early in growth and a vertical scrog would work great. The holes in the screens would support the bud weight and you could manually help the plants find their way with little effort. Lollipop the at the bend for easier watering. Being able to adjust the screen distance may be important for the stretch though, something you probably already thought of. Just my 2 cents, I've never scrogged or ran vertical but I love both!

Oh yeah. Made in BC baby!

Oops, I am trying it, that's exactly what the Flying Spaghetti Cheesey Vertical Scrog Monster is about, lol. I just don't know if the net is actually benefiting the growth like a horizontal screen does............

It looks like its working in the pics lol. Thing is a beast. Is it supporting the bud weight efficiently? Hard part is probably trying to spread it out to keep the canopy open because once they're through they're not coming back out with swollen ass buds hahah. From what I can see in the pics it looks glorious, just like Blue.

I've come to the conclusion that it doesn't... I do think that it helps get more light to more parts of the plant, though, if flattened correctly. Maybe that's what I was trying to say before. God dammit I'm stoned.
