Some machines require more maintenance I guess.

I just keep putting my maintenance off and shoving a new run of plants in, lol....

I don't think I'll ever grow indoors again without a turntable of some sort. They will spoil you!

I got access to the other side of the grow in like 3 seconds :-) and didnt have to tie myself in a knot to do it.

What am I missing about all of this? The setup is tight but what is the benefit in the end?

Instead of 16 square feet of canopy space I have 43..... That's what your missing. I have 86 sq feet of canopy getting prime light intensity, and I'm only using 2-600s

edit: and even the 16 sq feet set up horizontally there are big swings in light intensity from the center of the canopy directly under the bulb to the outsides towards the walls.

I see two math issues arise..the first is having a significant decrease in canopy depth right? Also, buds growing radially actually lose canopy space as they grow toward the bulb? I am just curious I have only heard people talk about it. Can u pull 3x more?

Not much depth but from good intensity the nugs get pretty solid. The screen is there to keep the plants from growing into the light.
we shall see what I pull.

Think about it.
I dont know how the plants are trained or placed. My guess is no, but I also think in 3 dimensions. Actually, I think you just want a bunch of complements on building a box. Think about this 2.5 times the canopy space and 50% less depth is a wash.....

:) I grow near the same way (sorta not really) and I use a screen to hold the plants back from the light... keeping my giant canopy intact (as much as possible anyways). The problem I've noticed with my grows is that the stuff around the light whoops the stuff below... if I got that light mover action going in my grow I'm sure just that would increase yeild by 50%. I think by going vertical in a small space I have increased about 100% over the same space growing horizontally. That would be 3x's the yeild over flat in my closet. And if I had something that rotated like whodat has I'd be able to use all 360 degrees... as of now I use maybe 270 so I can access the plants. With that I would for sure be capable of tripling the horizontal grow in my space.

That's what's up with my closet... I'm sure it's going to be nearly the same type of thing in this set up. If one has I small yet tall space I think vertical is the way to go. Yo yo lights and spinners just make it that much better.

EDIT: I think you just like going around and being a fuck tard. :) Always fun to play the talk shit in my edits game.

Well Im just not skilled enough to do that then. I dont need my plants to spin around lol even if I had the space.... Not logical imo.
