does one of the shelves slide out for access to the middle?

No shelves slide out they are all stuck together but we left a small walkway on the side to get to the middle for tying/inspecting flower. Here is a couple pics of it to get a better idea.

So ive been seeing some burn on couple of the leaves on some of the plants. Only about 4-5 of them are doing this can anyone tell me what kind of a burn this is? Thought it was nute burn but maybe light burn?

looks like light burn bro to me. I did the same shit to some of my bubbas last run

id have to say light burn too

Exactly what i was thinking some of them were a little close to the light. Will tie them NOW! lol

yeah light burn .....dude thanks for posting this I have to move and have been looking for a new set up and bump ba bu bum this is it I will probably go square though and some chicken wire on in side to vscrog and wrap poly around out side continous no three sides with one side that slides out ( thanks motherload ) no poly on that side hay mc lazzy maybe a big floor fan pointed up will move that heat around enough or at least move cooler air up to the top but anyway this is how im going next with some medijuana and white widow and some chemical romance thanks mc lazzy

keep on growin

Thanks for the kind comments as for the light burn the tube was tilting a bit so fixed that. And tied a couple of the branches so hopefully we should all be good. my fan on top of my light tube is not working at the moment so will get that fixed as well in the next couple days. I have 3 floor fans pushing air up as well and i made sure not to put poly on the outside so i can water from the outside it gets quite crowded in the middle once they get past week 4. I have thought about the poly but after trial and error i rather have air movement than small amounts of light being reflected back once they are all tied and in place almost no light gets through due to a even canopy so not much light would be reflected back anyway. I think this is a great way to yield without using too many lights and not too much space. You can purchase the tubes at octagonhydroponics.

cool set up! What nutes are you using with these badboys? feed feed flush or flush feed flush?

yeah I didnt really think of the canopy .....but Im hoping to fan the plants out on chicken wire and shave their legs and then the poly would reflect ....I hope sorry didnt see floor fans also if it has poly on it and sealed and good cfm fan to pull out hot air temp might not be a problem ........we shall see getting gear from AMS and some chemical romance from the farm gonna run them in this set up and post grow diary
EVERYBODY GROW EVERYWHERE

I have some nutes left over from last run but added a couple extras as well. Fox Farm 3 part. Grow Big,Big Bloom,Tiger Bloom,Calmag,N.U.T.S. from mad farmer, B1,Silica Blast,flora nectar,hygrozyme,roots excel,my gaurdian,snow storm ultra,gravity, M.O.A.B. and bush master when i need it. =) As far as feeding schedule last run i did a feed flush feed but am thinking of doing a feed feed flush this time around. Has anyone tested this? im curious to hear what others have tried and their results.

feed feed water should do you fine

thats a crazy amount of nutes though if you ask me and I know you didnt lol

Feed feed flush was a little heavy for my ladies. They love flush feed flush. Lately I've been trying to push them with feed feed flush, but 100%/50%/Flush and they seem to LOVE it. Leaves are standing upright. Thats just the base nutes though. I still leave all the additives at full

Thanks everyone for all the input i decided to go with a feed feed flush at this point since i have already started on a feed feed so next watering ill flush. Got the fan fixed for the cooltube today and straightened the light fixture. The plants are definitely staying cooler at this point so hopefully no more burn/bleach. I have been taking off the leaves that are getting burn to a crisp but am hesitant to take off the half burnt leaves. This is my first time having light burn/bleach so not sure if i should take them off or just leave them. Any suggestions?

Light burn/bleach has stopped but it got a good amount of the fan leaves =(. Will post pics when ive got a minute

ANy updates?

:( good luck
