Going Vert in a tent?

Possible?

I've done a few searches and haven't been able to find anything.

Interested in anyone that has done a 1000w or 600w vert set up in a 4 x 4 secret jardin tent.



Thanks!
 
Its a 4 x 4 secret jardin, about 7 1/2 feet in height.

It works well, very basic set up, enough for me. Curious as to whether or not a vert in a 4 x 4 was feasible or if anyone else had done it before.

For example. If you were to only grow along 1 side of that wall you would get a 30sq ft foot print that you can grow on. If you grew horizontally you would only get 16 sq ft. That link I sent he used a 600 watt and a 250 watt but has an a/c window unit.

The point is to use as many walls as possible

You must have not searched very hard lol.

Check the link in my sig below.I grow barebulb vertical with a 400w HPS in a 3x3x6 SJ DR90.
 
Thanks all, I appreciate all the help. No need for any more posts, I just digested J's thread and there is plenty of info there to supplement Marlo's journal.
 
vent vert this morning, seeing temps around 82-84. Above my usual 76 average but it is unseasonably warmer today.


Thanks for all the help guys!

I'm assuming your ambient temps (temp of the room your tent pulls fresh air from) raised too.

I dropped down from the 1k bulb i was using to 600 watts ushio i had, the heat is now much more manageable in that tent.

Plus the light was absolutely blinding with the 1K. It was like that scene out of Pulp Fiction when they open the briefcase.


I walked to the welding store and got myself a set of glasses a few hours ago, that should be the first thing people buy when they go vert.


That should be the first thing to get when going vert.

Buy Shade 5 welding glasses, they are like 15 bucks and will save your eyes.

Then, everything else lol
