First of all
hello everyone,
been reading the forum for a time now, and finally decided to join so i can clear my mind with this project of mine and go ahead with it with some sense of confidence.
My intention was to set a room(with plenty of space) with the plants set in rows. I'm not native english speaker and don't know exactly how to translate the concept, so the closest thing to what i'm refering to is "planting framework" or "planting pattern". So yeah, time and time again what i see of you growing folks is that you lay a number of plants in clusters, and i don't really know if its for a reason a part from space.
Is there any general consensus or common knowledge(that i'm unaware of) that leads to do this planting pattern in such fashion?
Because i would rather have them placed in rows for easy access and better care and for a more comfortable work/handling of cultivar.
This question derives from other questions. As i am going to try some diy with cobs the footprint and layout of the emitters will depend on wether the adding effect of a screen of leds(in ppf/plant) is needed or if for example one or one and a half cxb3590's per plant arrayed in a straight line would be viable.
That would be the other question, how many cobs/plant?
Ideally with this pattern(if its viable) in line i would go on and weld some kind of structer where i can hang white screens both sides and bounce back that light onto the sides of plants along the lane. In my head it seems better(until i get wronged out of fantasy world xD) in terms of efficiency. I mean a more diaphanus space instead of the cluster, more light per plant maybe, less shadow, more air and sanitized enviroment for plant and a much better working conditions.
Anyway that's in the land of ideas and all theoryzing, therefore i ask to you nice people fundamentally:
Given enough space and factoring in efficiency and economic viablity, growing in rows is an option ?
In this case, would ilumination needs vary? More or less cobs will be needed? One or one and half cxb3590 enough?(that would be 75watts of led light/plant)
Well that's for starters haha. i've got many other questions i will try to read thru all the knowledge here in the forums. Hopefully is an interesting enough question. Any kind help and knowledge is much apreciated.
Thank you in advance.
