I guess it's time to introduce myself over here in the Vertical Growing section of the forum. Typically I have been lurking around in the "LED and Other" section of the site but I have decided to give some vertical growing a try. I am always keeping my eye on the other lighting techs but for getting things rolling I will be using all HID for now. Waiting on you @ttystikk to show us if cobs are the way for vertical!

Ok, I went from a 3x4 multi-level veg / pre-flower box with a dedicated final flower 5x5 which will now be a 4x5x8ft tall single level veg with a 5x5x8ft tall final flower box.
My plan is to have 4 vert monsters in the 5x5 at any given time. Staggering my timing so 2 will be harvested approximately monthly and two new vegged up beasts swapped in.

So it will be 6 big ass DWC plant sites. I will be using 10gal Rubbermaid Brute Waste Bins for my dwc modules.
2 cans with plants and a 3rd as a controller for each pair of plants. That gives me 23gal of nutrient for 2 plants.
This way I can gave independent control of the solution of each pair of plants depending on where they are in there stage of growth - veg, early flower, finishing, etc.

I am running a 600W Hortilux Blue MH for veg hung vertical in kitbashed china cool tube made into a heat extractor vert top hat. I know the Horti Blue is not supposed to operate vertically but I am trying it anyways o_O

At this stage I am still constructing and have not gutted out my flower box for reworking till the current harvest comes down. I will be running a pair of cool tubes stacked vertically with 600W Hortilux Super HPS's.
I want to be able to fully manage heat and have no need for a/c with the location I am at.

Veg DWC fully set up tonight and need to get working on my trellises. I plant to pull the lid with trellis from the veg dwc and slap it right on over to the flower box when the time comes

Here's a few pics of this mess getting rolling :bigjoint:

What exactly is vertical growing?
Pretty much just growing the plants vertically as they normally would vs spreading them horizontally. Some people will spread them out on a screen like this. 20200617_082628.jpgBut you are lighting the plant from the center of the room. Or in the case of led vertical grows the side.

So here we go with another wacky OneHitDone creation.
Me and the standard Aerocloners just can't seem to get along so I got to brain storming.
Inspire by the GH RainForest - I Bring to you the OneHit Cool Mist Cloner!
Modded a Vicks Cool Mist humidifier as a sprayer / mister for a cloner. This should remedy the water temp issues I keep having with standard submersible pump / sprayer cloners.
I'll keep this updated as to if it actually works.

Awesome contraption man! And is the orange cat lazy, friendly, hungry, male and loves canna leaves?
