Hey Everyone, Just wondering if you vertical folks could share some light on my current project.

I have removed the chimney stack in my house and now have the empty cavity running up through my bedroom the Interior dimensions of the rook are 24'' by 19'' by 10 feet tall. I have already wired up multiple plugs and have a small grow going on now. I currently have the space partitioned however i am open to opening it up.

Lights at my disposal are:

6 citizen clu058 1825
6 meanwell drivers

Any advice on the best way to optimize this space for yields would be greatly appreciated.

The 19" width it tight for an HID vertical. Something could work with 250w hps. Maybe two vertical bulbs 8" apart.

i agree with owly, 250watt hps/mh with a 6" or whatever "cool tube" attached to the appropriate vortex fan with a carbon filter on the end would be perfect. maby find 4 nice 3gal square pots. do 4 clones or feminized. maby partition a small shelf above with a couple fluorescent tubes for some cloning.

Good idea, if that can work it would give awesome results. On the 19" dimension it might be too tight. Hopefully someone who knows more about CMH's than I can say if 7 1/2" from the bulb would be too close. If it is you could leave a ~8" vertical gap on both sides where it would be too bright. If your walls are reflective, you won't loose much.

great idea!..a fkn Chimney!..lol

Id use the length (10ft is high) and go a perpetual grow.. Mothers at top, Veg room in the middle and Flowering room at the bottom. Or whatever works for comfort, heat, accesability. etc

have you considered turning your bedroom into a grow room and sleeping in the chimney?
