This is a custom designed vertical I built to fit inside a 54"x54"x96" tent. For shits and giggles, i decided to custom design and build the tent too. The vertical is made out of 4" pvc, the rez is made from pond liner and 1x12" wood and the tent is made from wood and panda film w zippers atatched. This particular vert is lit w 3-400watt hps bulbs and cooled w 6" high velocity fan. System is self watered with a 1300gph pump on timer that sits in rez. Allowing for 18" clearance around entire vert gives you a 90"x90" footprint.

I thought the tents were regular with reflective materials on walls and ceilings , but I guess pandafilms better than nothin....I`d fukin LOVETA see tents made with orca since it`s so thin , or even usin the pandafilm to spray 3M adhesive on for reflectix or prodex FTW , but nonetheless....

Awesome shit DBT....Keep it comin...We need the input down here in Vert-ville.....

Peace....DHF.....:ying:....

To Mister D: Parts list to follow. I've been pretty busy lately, got 4 verticals going right now w a few more to follow.

To DHF: as you may well know already, tents arent needed to reflect light, I only use or build tents for privacy control or to better control temp, humidity,etc... In a vert setup if done correctly, you end up with a full canopy top to bottom...ie, no light escapes to be reflected back so no need for any fancy materials when building tents.
I appreciate the input and inquiries..I'll do my best to keep up w Questions and posts. As it is, I have hundreds of grows and cycles done in vertical setups. Its going to take me a minute to download pics and all, but they will be coming soon nonetheless.
Peace

Hey Bro...Maybe I wasn't clear about my last post , but what I meant was that up until the sideways canopy is BUILT and filled in by end of stretch , ALL light that gets past the plants is lost forever , and that`s why I`ve preached reflectix on walls and ceilings for many many yrs to bounce lumens up , down , and all around said grow area FTW....that said....

Thanks again for your time and experience.....Hope yas get comfortable down here and stay for a while.....

Peace...DHF....:ying:......

DHF, I totally agree with ya Bro....If I didnt grow multi verts side by side in same room, I would definatly be reflecting and adding lights all around....sorry if I came off negative....I believe there is never enough info out there, and any and all suggestions are considered and eventually tried until proven or disproven...Thanks for your Input Bro!
