i'm doing my first vert with a 600 in a 5.5 x 5.5 room and well, there's no room left and i'm in 4th week. i'd like to run 2-600's and am thinking i will need at least an 8x8 room to get around a little bit, maybe a 10 x 10. what size rooms do you run in and is there plenty of elbow room to get behind all the plants? i'm crawling on the floor under the light now. i'm hand watering but will be setting up a drip system although i still need to get to the plants for inspection n such. thanks in advance.

I have an 8 x 8 flower room with 6 plants around 3 stacked cool tubes, could do 8 but no room for me then . Loads of room in there but I have all my plants individually caged and now on kinda lazy susan / bearings things for easy rotation, feeding, inspection, bulb change blah blah. It is the individual cages that gives me the extra room as my plants are all the same width from bottom to top and trained into cage. Not saying this is the way to go, won't know until chop if the effort is worth the outcome.

Most of us want more growing area, but some try to grow plants in empty computer cases or shoe boxes. Go figure.

What you describe sounds both promising- and hard to visualize. Some pictures to show what you're describing would be very helpful.
