Vertical aero racks

Wanted to show you guys what ive been up to these days. First run was 3 walls and just the bottom 2 rows, now the 4 walls are up and the top rows filled. Its hard to get pics now with the full cube.









and with the 4th wall

this is beautiful man my life is now complete +rep

that is some shit.very nice

magnificent

Well done sir.

Just goes to show that if one is determined to learn and act accordongly, all sorts of positive things ensue...You have done quite the nice set-up. I too, take alot of pride in taking what I ahve learned and elaborating on it to the point that I gain more and more knowledge from the previous experinces I have learned. Great job man, keep up the good work. You have quite the nice start on an abundance of what appears to be, healthy Coalas and big a big harvest. I like to build most of my own euipment not only saving money (it does cost in my time though-) but the satisfaction that I can, indeed, make something that is good, even better.Reps to you, Sir...

Can you add some detail about it?Light size,pot size,how it all works and such?It looks fuckin badass.How many misters you got/bucket?

Thanks for the compliments. This system has been a work in progress over the last 6-8 months. Its based on Heath Robinsons vertical racks, (respect to Heath) although mine is much different and aeroponic, where his was a drip feed system with rockwool.

Each wall has 15- 2 gallon buckets, with one ez clone sprayer per bucket. So 15 per wall, 4 walls = 60 buckets (or plant sites).

Each bucket has a small 1'' hole that drains to a rain gutter system back to a secondary reservoir with a float switch that empties to the main reservoir when full. Fed 1 min on 5 off. The pump is a 1hp shallow well pump capable of 950 gph and up to 50 psi and feeds all the walls through 1/2 pvc and 1/2'' hose from the top fed manifold. The 55 gallon res sits outside of the grow room and also uses a chiller to keep water temps at an ideal 67deg.

Right now im using 2 1k bulbs one above the other, but i plan to experiment with 600s maybe on the next run. The walls are built on wheels so i could move them and get inside.

Very nice, I thought Heath used a flooded tube not a drip or is there a different rendition of it he evolved into

I think Heath has done it all. He's done aero, flooded tube, DWC... you name it.

Hey thanks for sharing the details.Man thats cool!

How was the total yield?
Also, did you do any trimming? ie lolipoping? How old were your clones that you put into your contraption?

thats a bad ass setup man! can you show how you got your lights to hang like that?

Very nice setup. Impressive looking flowers! How much did you yield and how large of an area did your setup occupy?

That is honestly ridiculous. What was the total yield when accomplished? What strain/strains?

Ya I'm curious to

For some reason a full page got deleted.

The last run yielded just under 3 lbs. 1.5 0zs shy. But all rock hard nugz in the final tally. Although i did have 7-8 plants on the corners that got dwarfed and didnt yield squat. That was the first run with the system full.

Ive since adjusted the walls and staggered the plants on my current run (29 days in). Its looking much better! I estimate that with the improvements i should hit somewhere between 3.5 to 4 lbs. But yall know how that goes.. never count your chickens.

the strain is green crack....its ok , but i hope to find a better strain to work with soon.

dude awsome grow i remember seeing heaths thread a while back , keep us updated

Nice setup dude.

Sweet grow ... I like the aereo set up what kind of filter are you using, have any problems with nozzles. Also the square arrangements is far less effecient
then a circle arrangment. If u really wanting 2+ per 1000 I would switch to pvc and or fence post and increase plant numbers
