Your video didn't come through. A few pics?

Yes 4.5' cir x pi , 6ft high panels, my res are 1.3' high and i want about the same at the top for my exhaust. Enough??
I agree moving the light is a very practical and more productive method, If i could i would be doing it as well....

No ''panels'' per say, a complete circle, diameter 4.5ft wide x 6ft high .. Room will be configured into grid style with the buckets/plants. 3 rows deep x 4 wide allowing 12 plants. 3plant per circle.
Does this make sense?
My main issue if the heat of the light/distance to the plant. How far do you think is reasonable, once foliage grows inwards?
I'm not quite able to visualize four circles fitting over a square grid, but I'll take your word for it! Sounds good, actually...
ATM, mine are doing great in a four foot diameter trellis, 3" smaller in plant to light distance than yours, and I got minor light bleaching on a few early fan leaves directly across from the bulb. My canopy is still filling up, and so I can't say with certainty how deep the canopy can get and avoid light burn. Truth is, I'm hoping to get my light mover built soon so I don't have to find out.
For your consideration...
If plant numbers aren't a problem you could run from clone.

Well that gives me a bit more confidence going into it, I'm all about taking risks ;) calculated one's though..... I'm gonna enjoy crawling in there LOL.... Worth the effort if it turns out the way it should...

Hi mrsgreenbuds and ttystikk,
Was pretty stoned earlier and had a craving for Irish Nacho's...but I'm back....and fed.
As you can see I'm new to the site, not sure about pic limits etc....so please bare with me. :)

Ok...I designed it to be a 4 tier system. I was impatient and didn't wait for my clones to root properly....but thats fine because this was the first run to try and get things dialed. So the two bottom tiers ended up over vegging and top two didn't veg long enuff lol.
The strain was NLxBB that I had grown from seed.
Because it was an experiment I tried different combo's and height with the bulbs to find the "sweet spot". For a bit I even ran 3x600w in that lil' room. It was a sealed room 12,000BTU AC unit so temps weren't an issue.
The inner diameter was 36", the PVC was 4", with 2" netpots.
In the 3rd pic down you can see the res, 250 GPH pump fed the top, gravity did the rest. No need for air stones in the rez as the falling of the water from tier to tier created enuff DO to keep the girls happy.
No water temp problems as the plants canopy shaded the tubes nicely.
I got about a pound of dense nuggetry to smoke and another pound of fluffy bud/sugar trim that I made into oil.
Due to security the grow was shut down before the girls got to their full potential. I didn't get to do another run, was arrested the day before I was to put the 2nd round into flower. Fucking shame really...I did 300 clones...only selected the best...and then the cops took them lol.
The experience was invaluable and I'll gladly share some of it.
-3x400w bulbs are idea for this size setup (has nothing to do with how big your light is, it's where you place it)
-always have 3 times more clones then you need. Select the best, donate or compost the rest.
-good lawyers are really, really fukn' expensive.
Any other question feel free to ask....but right now I have to get caught up with ttystikk's thread.
Watching Heavy. .Fellow Vert Man. Obsessed with it..Are those tubes hard to maintain? ?Loving the set-up! !
Yea I had a think about my 4x circle, I figure its gonna be a cluster fcuk, so I'm going with 2 walk in columns with 3 walls, the middle wall will be doubled so 4 walls total. 10ft long x 7ft high.
I'll run the 2x1000w in each column. 4plants each row, this should give me enough space to walk in the room and also to hang all my ventilation.
I would have loved to run the cylinder, but this is more practical for my situation.
Must be time for another toke then ;)
Any part in particular ??
Think of it like 2 shopping isles, the shelving in between connects to 2 isles, Thus making 4 vertical shelving in 2 isles.
