i agree with keeping it simple to an extent.. i will bust my balls for an extra .1 gpw and build crazy contraptions LOL.. only gotta build it once
heath robinson had a grow where he did some monsters under 1800w and got like 5lbs or somethin i liked it he had big big plants but did the vert.. i have thought about replicating it as well.. just depends on what my next space is lookin like
ya he is, he inspired my system.. he is coming out with a crazy new vert this week so we shall see how it looks.. im stoked
What ever happened to keeping it Simple. Especially with growing.
Im not saying vertical is a bad idea, but I think what we should focus on is the most Simple, and Efficient vert style grow that can use Max light from a single bulb.
It seems to me that when you start using multiple bulbs in vert you start losing the efficiency.
I guess the real question is, are you trying to make max use of space, OR are you trying to get as much bud per bulb as possible?

anyways back on topic.. who thinks this setup would NOT yield more than a typical hooded 3x3? I am quite curious
OK - I am jumping in from this quote - not sure of somebody else touched on this point, though. Technically, I don't think this is a vertical grow. You have one level of plants with the light mounted above. I think you could take what you have and add three more levels mounted 6 to 8 inches above one another with the net cups staggered horizontally. The plants will grow in and up with the tops overlapping the stems on the row above. Four levels would give you four layers of plants covering the four inside walls - 64 plants total. I think the hardest part will be positioning the light - maybe between the third and fourth levels.
Just some thoughts - not looking to criticize.
