Mine is vertical, basically just sitting upright on the floor. It works great and there have been no problems. Some people mount them horizontally to get them off the floor and out of the way, that's all.

you could get 5 or 6 decent plants in there, growing to about 10/12 inches then flower

as long as it's tubed to a ventilator it doesn't matter where/how you place it.

I prefer to hang it up horizontally so I have more space to work with my babies

yeah you can. I've seen some people place it vertically standing on their grow room floor.

instead of sucking air through it can you push or exhaust the air through it? like have the air your takin out of the box blow out of it rather than have it in the box and suck the air through it?
