i nice change from my tables that i love

2 x 8x10 beds x 8 600 - 40 plants
1 x 16x5 bed x 4 600 - 24 plants

i just selected some awesome moms

i am finally adding a pink pain killer to my signature line, but will take a while before i have any cuts.

I never really liked running beds or having that many in beds plants are always fighting for the light you get more waste to bud ratio as in underdeveloped buds / larf ..
working in that area is a complete cluster fuck one plant disease / bugs will infect all
I used to believe that packing a room full or having lots of plants will infact give you more yields .. but from my runs its opposite less plants = more yield for me less operating costs as in nutrients and hrs spent
lets face it no need to be constantly fiddle fucking in a room

Yeah but for the record, there's no pics so noone really knows what is goin on in med-man's head or garden . Pretty sure that he's thought of it and jus didn't spring outta bed and put it together. Not Tryin to get my nose in this but the man is not novice and I know personally. ...I can't wait to see the show. No disrespect fellow growers . 420lyfe PpP. Peace and good vibes ☺

hi doctor fever

ya, you make a good point. beds arent for everyone.

but the med-man method was created fro scrog type scenerios. but get rid of any issues before they come up as best as possible.

i love beds. they have been my most productive soil experiences. and now that canada is set to fully legalize, i dont have the time or energy to moniter 10 rooms full of med-man tables. it just doesnt make sense for me. so i will have 3 rooms tables, then the rest beds.

its all about what works for the grower right?

i will take some pics right now

i just want to say. if you are a commercial grower, this is the way to do it. if you follow the med-man method with these beds. from front to back. you will kill it. 1 man can tend easily to a 24 light grow as the room only needs to be inspected at least every 3-4 days subject to plant size. this is my favorite production method next to my tables as far as soil grows are concerned.

clean up is also a breeze, and i know guys that have reused there soil mix over 12 times in a row, with now draw backs. plants are chopped, beds are broken up, roots are removed, medium lost is replaced, replant the same day.

rmember, messages, screens, good medium flushes and shock ripening are key to retarded yields and quality, even you you cant rock c02. and, if space is minimal, or plant number sare not a problem, soil could have filled this walkway as well, increasing yield by another 20% or so. i have seen full basement, filled with soil, 12 inches high. lights are put on rollers with ropes by the entrance. once flipped with screens, no more need to get in there. its just like my tables, all area is utilized to the fullest, and buds are supported once massive and ready to chop.

you can do this method sea of green as well. as many plants you want to put. either less plants or more plants, just add drippers and lines to accommodate. just make sure to have a good barrel filter to prevent line clogs , esp with organic nutes and additives.

I am sure people will get yields but again having 100's or thousands of small plants your only going to get so much where as a person on comercial scale may use 1000's of plants each plant having its own 40 - 50 gallons of soil and allowed to grow will indeed kill it if i was in the comercial end personally i would have No beds stacked vertical lighting with a shit load of horizontal lighting and major duct work where i think the grower would indeed max out gram per meter sq
something like this where each plant brings in min 1/2 - 1 pound harvest rather then a bunch bringing in couple grams or oz's imagine 5000 plants bringing home min 1/2 pound dry new meaning to comerical :) of course have plants chasing it so once done you bring in next batch all old soil is flushed and recharged and reused

nice grow doc

thats a lot of work

i noticed in your first pic that those "beds" look more like plastic hydro tables.

my beds are automated feeding. generally 1 plant per 2ft/sq. if my licences had higher plant counts i would grow 1 pl/sq/ft

if i didnt have 4 businesses to run i would to all of my med-man tables. but i need time away to expand and move forward and i like the forgiving nature of the beds. ease to operate and low expense annually.

what strain you have there? very uniform, very nice!

hey doc

you every grow any kushes? ppp is a beast for sure.

scrogs are totally a part of both my systems. i veg a bit longer though so i can move underneath the canopy.

i just brought a room of 30 plants down, looks like 10-12 pounds, from 4.8 kw( 8 x 600w digi). in 2 x 4 x 16 ft beds. 30 days veg, 60 days bloom. can never really tell till its bagged and tagged.

kushs of course lol i used to do some pretty stupid grows but after some close calls and getting older its not worth it to me anymore but yeah did lots of 76 plant rooms all at once was a full time job to say the least perputual having hundreds of clones training rooms and veg n flower rooms sealed c02 etc
like i said now i am a small time grower less heat no need to look over my shoulder anymore life is better "_" actually charles is sending me some jihadi kush and few other strains plans are jihadi kush and trainwreck x pakistani chitral kush start up in DEC for out door season
