That's what I'm contemplating right now, as it happens. What would you like to see on the subject? Books? Tutorials? Equipment? YouTube videos?

that's great news !
from my beginner grower perspective your method and yields are unbelievable. im sure many other people like me visits this thread thinking the same thing. we dont know much about a lot of things. so if you prepare a guide i would suggest you to save some time on answering stupid questions in the future and make it simple and explain not just what you do but why you do it this way. im a visual learner and i think most people learn easier with pictures,even videos if you have the passion to fck around with editing etc. think of it as something people will remember you from long after you are gone : ) so make sure the end result is something you can be proud of and will educate generations to come.
explain not just what vertical growing means but how you produced your results in detail, your own experience. make a few chapters /equipment,nutes/training methods etc..., might be too much to write all that knowledge at once. you could call it "How to 50 zip"

good luck

I had a bad infestation of cops a couple weeks ago....

I have water cooled COB LED module and 4' x 250W LED bars for all my needs at the moment. I'm sure I'll be getting more quantum board fixtures in the near future.

Sorry to here but when you can tell me more about these water cooled COB lights. You just use CPU coolers setup for water?

I like your vertical scrog. Do you just do a single plant deep grown tall with vertical cobs like I saw posted in scrog thread:
https://www.rollitup.org/t/cob-grow-amnisia-cheese-sugar-something.931923/

Doing a standard scrog in my room did not make work this time. I cut the strings I spent hours tying right after moving plants from veg to flower room. I will have less plants next round but still not sure a standard scrog will be ideal. Maybe just topping and LSTing like I did this time is what will work best in my space. Maybe add some some vertical vero10 cobs so I can increase the height but still get good penetration down low.

You've asked some deep questions. I'm running big plants to maximize plant counts. I do it vertically to gain best use of limited space available.

Water cooled COB LED is a way to get sufficient light to the additional canopy space created without excess heat buildup.

Dammit. I was looking for answers on water cooling a cob or 3...

Also. I like this vert grow. Looks trippy. Keep on kicking ass ttyystikk.

TS, I have a question, have you smoked any thai stick? I use to get it when stationed in the Philippines, what a distinctive flavor and lite headed stone. I got their in the 60's when all we were smoking at home was the cheap ol' Mexican Mini-Bricks, half seed, quarter stem so you got about a quarter of not very good dirt weed.

On your new gig, I would like to see something in a tutorial on cobs.

I will not stop my life's work. There may be delays for a prison term lol, but my work hurts no one and has the potential to benefit many.

If there are any questions I can answer for you regarding your water cooled project, please don't hesitate to ask me!

Thai stick was/is a heady stone because its dipped in opium.

From Wikipedia:
The Thai sticks exhibited considerably higher potency in comparison with other cannabis available in Western countries at the time. This added potency was rumored to be caused by the Thai sticks being dipped in opium or in hash oil. However, the more widely accepted reason is that Thai cannabis growers had for hundreds of years selected seeds from their strongest plants, which coupled with Thailand's long growing season, high temperatures, and rich volcanic soil, conspired to produce an exceptionally potent product.

At the time we would not have know if it was dipped or not. We did get opium laced hash, beautiful stuff, a soft based hash with strips and specs of opium. The selling point a lot of dealers did at the time was to take a ball of the hash and cut it into quarters to show the stripping laced thru the hash. Cool stuff back then.

I've never smoked any, but my folks did and they told me it definitely had opium in it.

Being in Australia were you guys got Mexican brick we got Thai. It was normal strength pot to us as thats what was available. Thai stick was a level above and defintaly was dipped in opium.. Not saying some smart entrepreneur wasn't selling an inferior product under its name.Whats considered our land strains (i dont believe we have any true ones) are descendants or bread from Thai, and Cambodian strains.

Interesting enough we grow commercial poppies here on my island state, but i haven't heard of anyone making any Aussie stick...upload_2017-3-4_8-34-7.jpeg
Just have to jump the fence/climb the gate..the farms are everywhere..

Thai stick was everywhere in the 80s and early 90s. Then hash seemed to explode and take over and it was hard to find flowers until the hydro boom.

I read that the "opium water" that was a by-product of opium production was what they dipped it in. Sticks back in the '70s would knock you out!

I had a friend who was working for a large Dutch company and he would bring me back pucks of opiated hash. It was the most amazing smoke I ever had - until I started making my own :weed:

I dont grow on the scale of ttstikk and others on here but i still claim everything against my business's. I am lucky enough to have a Lawn contracting business and a Cleaning business. Between those you can claim nearly everything you purchase, grow related or not.

Thats one of the perks of a business number.


SOO wish i could grow full legal as a business..
