im just wondering if this set up will work in a 1.2/1.2/1.2m tent? im doing it with my 600w cool tube vertical and plastic mesh round 3 sides of my tent, im not sure if i will have condensation problems behind the mesh when i am flowering?? an thats the last thing i want! i know im not the 1st to try something like this but just want to know if i am goin to have any problems, i have 5 chem dog in coco,

thanks in advance :-P

It will work but not sure about a few things you got going on.......One is that screen you have up on the sides....I dont really get why ou have the screen in there it appears to be almost flush up agaisnt the tent wall if so the plants arent going to grow into the screen most likely because one they will grow towards the center light and two theres no room for them to grow into the screen becuase its right up agaisnt the wall.....Its not a VINE plant it wont attach to the screen and grow up it you have to make it grow into a screen by pulling the shoots you want up through it and pushing the ones you dont want down under it.....Its not just going to attach itself to the screen.... I say take the screen out and put the screen on the inside of your circle instead of the on outside agaisnt the wall...........Also you are using a cool tube but its not hooked up to a fan which means its dong NOTHING....If your not going to air cool the tube then get rid of the tube and just hang the buld by itself and you will get more light........The tube is blocking some of the light where theres metal and the glass is blocking some of the Rays to you are better off just using the BULD and hang that down verticle......My friend does kinda like what your doing but he hangs them with no hood or tube and hangs them at canopy level havesting the SIDES of the plants and has great results.......... So yes what your doing will work just need a few modifications thats all

cheers for the reply footclan, i have a fan for the cool tube but i need to get a new one before i set it up because the one i have now sounds like an aircraft taking off. i didnt want to wast my time setting it all up if it was not going to work, so im glad to hear that its doable, i have had a little experience with a sea of green and i was thinking doing it this way i will have to tie the stems to where i want them, also i will find a way to bring the mesh out from the sides as far as i can, i see what you mean about bringing it out into the circle i might see if i can attach some sticks to the pots then attach the mesh to that, just goin to trial an error different things till i get something that works, thanks again :)

No worries good luck let me know how it turns out......If you dont yield alteast a lb from how its set up then id say switch to normal way....I yield 1.5 lbs per cycle in a 4x4x7 tent with one 1000w hanging horizontel....so if you dont get close to that then what your doing might be more work then its worth i do a very VERY simple set up and yield very good doing it the normal way just someting to keep in mind.....if it an broke dont fix it.......

ok mate will do, i think i can do that, i got 10 ounces last time from 3 plants (started with 4) and i didnt fill the 1.2m2 screen because i had to remove one of the plants in flowering because it didnt start to flower :( i hope with a bit of work an the extra space with the mesh i can hopefully get near to what your getting, i will be happy with that, anyway if all goes to plan i will let you know what happens.
