Heaths Mini Vertical

Here is my recently completed vertical grow, it uses one 600w MH and one mj1000 pump. It holds up to 100 cuttings but on this occasion had 70+

enjoy the pics.

Holy shit man. You're a beast, good job!

Cheers SMOKEDATKU$H glad you like!



Heath

wow thats goddamn beautiful

hey how many feet of floor space does that take up?

thats cool as fook m8 fair play, good to see your still getting those monster yields

May I ask, what was your yield on that last pic? When I get my own place im thinking of getting a vertical system, maybe the Colloseum if anyone has seen that before?

Hydroponics Shop - Coliseum 5 levels

Thanks mistaphuck


CertifiedArborist It measures 44" across and stands 30" high


Nice one ripz thanks for stopping by.


sniggit the yield was 38.4 Oz = 1.8 grams per watt the coli is a massive piece of kit and not easy to get good yields out of you might try something smaller.

Wow I was thinking it was bigger then that. I have a few more questions for you if its cool since I'm trying to do something like this.

1st what size pvc did you use?
2nd is it 44" from end to end or is that the open space in the middle 44"?
3rd how much space are you giving in the middle of the pvc pipes?
and the last is what size res did you use?

Thanks for posting this up! I had this in mind but didnt really know where to start but after seeing yours it looks pretty easy and REALLY GOOD!!! Thanks again

Heath-You are the vert king dude,seriously.
Is it the coliesium itself that is hard to use or the shape/dimensions?
I was interested in building a wooden version of the Pi rack or pi wall
Home - Pi-Technics At last - a proven, fully tested growing system!
which just looks like a spin off the same idea with a different twist.
Do you think a large wood "coli" style set up would work or better to have several smaller ones.Do you have any tips/advice?
Is 1o lbs possible in a 16 x 11 room using diy vert?
Thanks n praise Hbr

this was an amazing thread. although long past, i think everyone could learn a little something here= )

Thanks Heath!!!

This might be a dumb question but how are you dealing with smell? are both vertical systems in one big sealed room? What are your thoughts on an enclosed variation of your mini banger?

Either way you da man! Impressive is a vast understatement.

No its not a dumb question, the systems are in a room with a carbon filter, a enclosed system would work as there used to be a sealed system for sale called the quick kettle or something like that, the main problem with totally enclosed systems is insufficient air flow between the plants. get that sorted and it would work.

that's what i was thinking, thanks much for the clarification mate *bows*

Aeg

great job, very inspirational! what do you find is the best spacing for a vert system like this? between the plants and between the rails? i imagine you arent veging for too long, more of a sea of green.

bring this thread from the dead just say say WOW. Ive seen quite a few nifty ideas for grow op. But this one is incredibly interesting. +rep for ya buddy.

Well suTraGrow, I'm glad you did. Reminded me of a question I have had in the back of my mind.

Heath,

I grow colosseum style with three tiers of coco filled hempy style buckets, drippers for irrigation, and two vertically hung lamps in the center. Simple and it works well, though I would like to increase growth rate and have been considering building one of your marvels. I'm wondering how you feel about this system now. Is it still in use or have you moved on to something better for high yield SOG style grows. Also, how easy is the system to operate and maintain?

Heaths gone AWOL?!

Does anyone have any idea how Heath got away with having the MH bulb so close to the plants? I would have thought they would have all been scorched/burnt. Thanks
