What kind of light?

A 600 with a 315 stacked on top.

the plant fits into 1 side of the cab.

So I'm guessing you have 3 more plants in there too?

i actually have 5 as 2 were smaller. But normally 1 for each wall and the moveable one.

Nice!

I ran 1000W lamps and I still think 600W were the way to go. I never did run 315W CMH in bloom.

only my 2nd run with the 600 and the 315 together but i like what i see. i use to run an hps mh mix in the past which always created nice flowers.

How close to a painted plywood wall, can one hang a 600 watt bare bulb ?

Thanks

I would say just like measuring the heat to the plant, the back of the hand method.

I've always loved vert training around hippy-hung lamps. Here's my current dilema. I can't find 600 watt core and coil ballasts anywhere. I've never been fond of electronic/digital ballasts because when they shit the bed, that's it, they're done, and failures seem to be pretty catastrophic.

I really do not want to run 1k HPS's again, though I still have plenty of 1k ballasts and even a few simgle-run lamps. Can anyone shed any light (no pun intended) on a source for plain old 600 watt magnetic ballasts?

every dutch grow shop sells them by the bucket load...probably not helpful if you are in North America. But they are cheap as here so it may still be worth it....a lot.of them are made in Spain.

Hey vert-guys
What is the average yield per 600/1000w when you growing vertical with about 4-6 weeks veg ?

there are too many variables to accurately answer that.strains,soil or hydro,temps,humidity grower skill

Well, how many grams per 600w would make you smile? Is it still 1 gpw or is the new thing 2 gpw?

i am not doing hps any more.doing leds vert now.with a 4 to 6 week veg you would need a strain that stretches alot to get good yields in my opinion.

Here is when I tried it a couple years ago.




5x5 tent. 600w

Electronic Ballasts have come a long way
Look at the Hortilux 600W.
I have a gold going for over 2 years with zero issues - Good Stuff!!

what are your best yielding strains vertical?looking for some new flavors.mine have been grape god by next gen.gg4. lemon og which i didnt really like.critical mass but it didnt look anything like the online descriptions.i got that from a supplier that nothing looked like the descriptions for the strains i bought and grew.i prefer indica dominent hybrids that stretch alot so veg is shorter.

Conflicting question, you ask about best yielding but then you say you are looking for new flavors,

Grew Exodus Cheese, great flavor and wonderful high, had Fucking Fungal Gnats toward end of grow that effect yield.
Barneys Farm G13 Haze vertical, 26.5 zips smokable buds off 4 plants. Beautiful plants, nice fragrance and taste, very good up high.
Grew Barneys Farm LSD vertical, 24.5 zips of smokable buds off 4 plants, fragrance and taste were good but the high is extreme, GF's favorite.
Just finished a Big Buddha Cheese vertical grow, 23 plus zips smokable, 5 plants. Had issues, had to go into flower later that I planned to the the plants got away from me, so had to a lot of Super Cropping and the lower 3rd of the plants were weak. None of that was not included in the smokable buds. The high was better than expected but the fragrance and taste are not what i expected.
Doing a 24 plant BB Cheese SOG at present.

so glad I just spotted this topic!
