thats really cool buddy.
What's an elbow? I said potato..
The bulbs are on yo-yos. They go up and down. I keep the bulb high when I transfer to allow for shock factor. Then after a week or so of getting used to the new space I flip them. That's when I drop the bulb. I raise the bulb when the plant is mature to the point where it is roughly in the upper 1/3 area of the plant, which is pretty much at the ceiling and as high as it can go).
The panel screen (some 6x6 grid metal for keeping cows in) is suspended about a foot in front of the middle of the pot, roughly 2 feet from the wall behind it. There is about a foot underneath so it's easy to get under it and service the girls from the inside. I always work my way from the inside to the outside of the plant. A lot of the small stuff you want to trim out halfway up the plant is generally weak sucker growth actually coming from near the bottom of the main branches and trunk. This is actually a lot easier to access and see when you are looking at the plant from the side.
These plants are situated a couple feet off the ground, so when you are sitting on a step ladder, you can reach right up in them.
In short, it's not really difficult getting in to the back side.
The white wall behind (panda film) is keeping a lot of the light in the canopy.
I turn this row of lights off when I work. The light from the other rows (lots of it) is behind me and I can see perfectly. no shadows. I also raise the lights up so I am not bumping in to them when I walk around.
If I were to do this in a small space I would have a nice t-5 on the ceiling to work while the main lights are off so you don't get burned.
Badass Cap, I'm going to try it on a smaller scale.
What is the closest distance you will allow the bulb to be from a limb/bud??
that's pretty OG status growing you are doing there cap!
Your ideas are halting progress over here... makin' me rethink everything. :)
so i think i remember reading somewhere that bare bulbs could explode from contact with water any info on this? or am i just smoking something :cigar:
Cap what size and how many watts is the room your running in now?
thanks!
foxtailing a bit and not putting out as much frost.
Trichomes are a plants method of controlling leaf surface temperature (and some studies suggest protection from UV light). If there is a very high temperature at the leaf/calyx the first thing that will suffer and die will be the trichome. This is it's purpose.
for hps, but what about the mh conversion hanging there? notice much difference? you got floor fans under each lamp?Nice. Some of the flowers were absolutely telling me they were too close. I think 18"-30" away is about the sweet spot on a vert barebulb 1k.
