I've been studying but still haven't pulled the trigger, I have an air cooled and a bat wing 600, really wanna invert the batwing one after removing the hood obviously but not sure how effective only 1 vert bulb is I only have 6ft head space

I have one 1000 hanging bare in a 4x4 closet and I can get 6 7 gallon ladies in there. Probably 7ft head space.
I think scrogking on YouTube can help you.

no but I am going to do this for my next grow
2 x bat wings and one 1m x 75cm scrog too make the u shape scrog.
3 plants will be perfect in this space
adjust a wing fully open
bats can be just under the hood height and the centre plant 20" below the light, I can see this working really well.
thanks kovidkough.

I'm thinking of doing 3 aswell but worry about corners so might try to shape it into a curvey V like a quarter of the coliseum design , scrog is crazy you can gain so many more sq ft

Depends on the width of your flower room,
you could make curve a screen on each end and tie the the shoots to the screen 2 weeks in flower (12/12)

Also a new user. Great to see others from other parts of the world.
I'm using a 1000w HPS in cool tube with reflector. Although from reading this thread along with a lot of other stuff I've lurked over the years, I'm interested in trying a vertical set up. My main concern of course would be temps. I find no issue keeping it cool in the tent in the winter months with my cool tube.
Appreciate all the recommendations being posted here. Gives me stuff to read up on while at my office lmao

Hi ElGrandeMongo,
there a lot of good advice on this thread
been overwhelmed with all the comments as I am a new member, it great and thank you all.
When you hang a 1kw bulb vertical, you would need a room 4ft x 4ft x 6ft and have plant all around the bulb because of the size of the room and the bulb does not trap the heat as much as a horizontal hood, I don't think it's a problem with the right set up.
Say you have a floor fan aimed vertical up and hang the top of the bulb just above the canopy and hang the filter vertical above the bulb, so you want a lot of plant 3ft high( above pots)
so you have a ring of plants trapping all the light and airflow
you will give the plants loads of airflow and remove all the heat at the same time
