Any differences? http://www.rollitup.org/vertical-growing/652668-overhead-head-any-differences.html Fri, 10 May 2013 05:25:12 GMT Hi Guys, I just recently started my first Vert grow but I can't seem to get the plants to stop drooping and twisting once the bare bulb is directly head on with the plants. It only doesn't droop when the light is directly over head. My question is, if I keep it overhead, sorta like what i've seen people do with tree grows, will it be just as affective as hanging it directly level with the plants? In my opinion, hanging overhead seems like it defeats the purpose of a vertical grow since the lights aren't being directly absorbed by the plants. See below for my amateur drawing..

Hi: All :lol::blsmoke:
After years of messin around with mylar sheeting and making poor attempts at DIY grow tents
I finally got me a proper grow tent its a Grow Cube(90*90*180cm) there is a slight bit of light spitting out here and there seams and zippier area but I think in the dark its dark most important eh!!!
I have been flowering 2xblue mystic for the last 3 weeks under high power cfls which for cfls the girls arent bad at all; standing 16ins tall at that in a closet but when l started this grow l really wanted to go hps and the closet was way to small.
So l got me a tent and have decided to go vertical bare bulb hope l will get a good end result
So set-up 4inch exhaust fan with carbon filter some 4inch alu.. ducting at bottom of tent for air in - works very well to
My 400 watter hanging from the centure and a 9inch fan blowen cool air on it
My temps are ok 79`F lights on not sure what it is when lights ld say early 60`s

Humidity control is 2 mini ones which are pullin moister my RH is 48%IMAG0087.jpgIMAG0094.jpgIMAG0082.jpgIMAG0083.jpgIMAG0086.jpg
Not sure what lm gonna do about tackling the humidity its a pain it allways is
So l guess l will post every now and again
Oh one other thing its a soil grow using greenleaf nutes and a dash of CannaBoost

Ok, so I have 18 - 45 degree coupler's
30 feet of 6 in pvc tubing
6 end caps
plenty of pvc primer and glue.
5 or 5.5 in net pots

I have been growing since I was a child ( my father told me we were growing tomato plants in the basement lol ) , I have experience with indoor and outdoor grows, soil and hydroponics. I am very new to vertical growing, and it is my next big project. I've been looking over the forums for months and finally decided to join up and hopefully get some great suggestions from you all.

My idea for this grow stems from http://www.octagonhydroponics.com, it's a rather expensive grow unit being sold and I want to build something along these lines. My plan is to use a top feed system and hopefully build a 3 level octagon.

I'm a little stuck right now with regards to my next step. I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas? Here are my main questions

How long to do you think I should be cutting my pvc sections? ( I was thinking 18in sections)
How many plant's can I place in the sections and how far apart should they be?
Should I go bare bulb or cool tube and how many lights would be suggested? ( I was hoping to get somewhere between 2400 and 3000 watts total)

As soon as i lower it so that it can get the full light, it droops again. The are about a foot and a half away from the bare bulb.

Cool! the... Okay im building a 3 layered heaths vertical tube in a portable rollable container that you can take apart so it will fit through doors. Cool! the box is 51inx51inx48in. I felt this was best because i need more space for tubing and it would about equal 4 feet after everything is in it. here we go! I'm going to buy 2 600w spectrum enhance hps bulbs 95000 lumens each stacked in the center. I need help calculating lumens per square foot. by my calculation the radius of my cylinder of neted plants will be 34 in and im unsure of the coverage of the actual bulbs but im guessing its the length of the whole cooltube so my height will be 38 in. so surface area of a cylinder is 2pi(r)^2+2pi(r)h right? Then dived by 12 three times to get in square feet. equals === 9793.81 lumen/ft^2 right? is that too much for my plants?

I would use 2 other T5's on two of the sides.
I am just curious if that would be enough light power for vegging and flowering.

So this is the room, sorry about my poor paint skills. I have been pondering what would the most efficient way of running the ducting in this room as the middle of the aisle can reach up to 90-95 degrees while the walk way in line with the chiller will be about 72. feel free to leave any suggestions (flexible or solid ducting? using "T"'s or "Y"? having the end capped off or not)

Cheers
