One question I have to ask, do you have any problems with burning with the bulbs touching the plants?
Very different grow to say the least. I have never seen anyone grow this style and I think it is great you are trying something new. Have you had a successful grow using this style before or is this the first?
Good luck and thanks for the interesting thread!

That's great Bud Hi! A really nice way to use space. That would be great for a stealth.
I have a few questions:
-Do you bend the plants under the tubes to keep them from growing upwards? Like LST but using your lamps, which would be great
-How deep is the soil?
-And how much soil did you fit in there?
-What sort of soil mix do you use?
-Have you considered doing the same with a hydro system?
-Did you have to dismantle lampfixtures to get the center tubes "floating" or do they sell separate ends that you can connect with wires?
-And ain't it true that the plants can't process light from under the leaf, only from the top? I was just thinking that I might've raised those floating ones just a bit higher.
Sorry for the bombarment of questions, I'm just very interested in this setup. Might make something like this for myself.
