how do you keep your lights from getting wet when they drip down....should you have your hangers on a tilt?

Keep it under plexi glass or reg glass. Its best case to prevent E fire or even ruining your ballast. Upside down grows to me are pointless and stupid. The plant will constantly be a hassle with leaks, cost of the right setup, and risk of it collapsing and breaking branches.

someone suggested to me before that i grow with a drip system in a topsy turvy.. i thought it sounded cool at first, but all thought beyond the initial "hhrrmmm" proved otherwise.. it would be a waste of time and energy and every dollar spent tryin to make it work...DEAD END folks

No way dude, upside down is killer!! You get sooo much dank, it's insane. I'm not one to reveal ALL the secrets of the pros but this is the best way to grow upside down for killer results.

1. Start a normal grow an flip into flower.
2. About week 4-5, smoke a large bowl, 75micron hash sprinkled on top will help with the process.
3. Now enter the flower room and turn away from the plants.
4. Now lean forward, bend over an look at your grow through your legs.

Boom! Killer upside down grow

I never really understood the point of growing upside down... doesn't make sense.

patting ones head while rubbing ones belly is merely amusing as only a few do it.

patting ones head while rubbing one out only makes a mess, not very amusing.;-)

I am shooting for 10gpw with this method not sure why you guys are all making fun of this, it's 4 times better than vertical and the plants mature twice as fast because they are confused

I think I'll expand on the upside down vert by growing my plants horizontally in a round cage suspended from the ceiling.

Check out the Omega garden. Kind of a clever design. Uses rockwool (much easier to deal with, especially with a top plastic cover and retains water pretty well) and it has a spinning cage that spins through a reservoir. Everytime it rotates the rockwool slabs get watered again. Some interesting designs on the guys website for gigantic gardens.

Apparently the rotation helps with hormone production too. I can see it, not unlike fans blowing on your plants. The gravity effect. The setup is fucking cool. I bet maintenance on a rig like that is a nightmare though.
