I use vert lighting for trees . I grew trees because of the number game. I see some heath inspires sys there. I prefer my plants growing straight up if I was going to do massive number. So I would run 6" pvc 20' and tier it 3 high as an aero unit. JK
Always wanted to change my rooms to vertical growing. I think it would take up allot less space. Unfortunately, I was sure that converting would result in an entirely new learning curve, which, at this point is impractical.
I thought it was going to be hard to convert, But once you have a system set in place and adjust it as you learn to dial it in, it is much better in my experience. I never have to worry about yield if for nothing else just the number of plants that are receiving care. Numbers dictate yield more than anything else. Once you work your system though, it is MORE practical because you yield more per watt, hence better efficiency.
You can say without a doubt in your mind that vertical growing will yield more?
I would assume using both sides of the bulb would create 2x as much yield. Anyone took a lumen meter to see what the dropoff rate is on a vertically unreflected bulb compared to a horizontally reflected hood? I'd imagine that's all it would take to answer that question wouldn't it?
I like 9 verts and 12 trees. The 4 corners of the room are reserved for equipment.
What is the standard plant height a vert tree grower would shoot for with 1 rows of bulbs? I'm guessing double stacked would be 7'+ canopy?
