Club Vert(600)

Here's my first attempt at an overhead view of what my tents may become in an effort to reduce plant count. I'll run the filter in one tent near the ceiling and close the intake vents of that tent so the outside air is pulled through both tents, scrubbed and ten exhaused. I still have two other fans that can effectively cool a 600w cooltube so I'll probably give each light it's own fan to draw air from outside the tents, over the bulbs and then out the top.
RDWC would be my style of choice for it too with each four bucket system having a res outside the tent. I'd put mesh attached to the walls and train the plants into the mesh, like Jig. Should be able to pull four good sized plants every month with this deal I would think.

With a little work this could be made into a tw tier deal and run 8 plants per light, cutting the harvest downtime in half. You would most likely want to run a secod bulb in each tent though to make sur the ones by the ceiling get sufficient light penetration.

With your tent and soil I would get a couple baker's racks and run my plants along the three walls in a mutli level set up. A 600 and a 400, one on top of the other in cooltubes in the center. I you only have the one fan to exhaust, mount the filter to the ceiling with the flange pointed down and hook your ducting and cooltubes to it with the fan near the floor. This is so it pulls the hot air through the filter, over the lights and then out a side vent at the bottom and away from the tent. You could have two or three tiers of plants and get some great results in that space.

that sounds real good,more good info.

Never heard of this method. Could someone please explain the benefits and draw backs

One benefit is a better use of available space. My closet is 2' x 3' and about 9 feet high. If I grew horizontal I would be using about 6 square feet of canopy space. Growing vertically I am using more like 25 square feet. I don't know of any drawbacks.

Awesome thanks for the info. This technique never even crossed my mind.

i'm probably gonna need another fa for this. sweet info dez hope you healing up good man. thx

thanks TGSS and yes, so far so good. I thought I would be back to work on thursday but the dr said monday so that's when I'm back to work.

I had a hard time sleeping last night with the shoulder and I ended up coming up with an awesome way to use my space for a vertical grow that will be perpetual and still give me some great yields. I'm going to totally bite Jig's grow but I'm sure he won't mind
I'm thinking I'm going to move my buckets around and set them up like my drawing but am going to use one tent for veg and have two systems in the other that are spaced four weeks apart. Four buckets to veg four plants for four weeks while training them into screens that are attached to the bucket lids so they can be moved from the veg bucket to a flower bucket where I'll strap the top of the screens to the ceiling. I'll try to keep to eight week strains and pull four plants every month. I just need my buddy to come over now to help me get shit moved around so I can get started training some into a screen. I'll put up pics of it once it's done.

Woohoo, back to vert!!
