Hey everyone,
I'm opening this thread to help me finish the planning phase of my sort of micro vertical system. Later on also to log my first grow with it.
I've had a few runs before indoor/outdoor but I'm all new to the vertical growing.
Sorry if my English is bad sometimes, it's not my native tongue.
I'm about to build a 250W RDWC vertical SCROG setup for 1 plant.
My aim is to reach the 1gr/w ratio and not to loose to much on the quality side.
My room of operation is an unheated room so It can go minus in winter. I've thought about the insulation and also about using the heat of the lamp so that part is mostly figured out already.
For the RDWC setup I've used snype's tutorial from icmag (He's a genius btw)
For the vertical part I still have some questions which I can't seem to find answers for.
I'm gonna put a ring of some metal wire,fence or something with the diameter of 40cm. What I have no idea about is the height of the fence?
What is optimal for a 250W HPS? I'm planning to run 1 plant based underneath this ring and the fence would be behind the plant.
All I know about the vertical, I've learnt it from the smart ones here on this damn good forum and from all the guys who made the effort to share the knowledge and wisdom in their threads.
I'd like to train that one baby under some T5's tie her down hard so that I can fill up my space equally later on. Also in order to place my little honeywell under the bare bulb I need to place the bucket under the vent so I need some long stems.
Anybody has some experience about how much heat does a lamp of this size produce?
Should I build some lamp mover so I have some extra space in height? Or that wouldn't work with a 250W?
I'll include some drawings of the system.
I'm already in debt with those who take their time to check in and help out here and there.
Thank you all!
