bobblehead's 1800w coco coliseum

What's up everybody! I've been talking about upgrades for a while now, and here it is... Hopefully the first of maybe 2-4 pods... First lets get this thing dialed in though...

So here's the sneak peak. Frame went up. I'm using an 8x10 pond liner. The grow room is 6x6. I wanted a large door to take things in and out, so the extra 2ft of pond liner just made sense. The door is 4x6. :) I purchased 36 sterilite stacking bins, stacked 4 high, in an octagon, 2 plants per bin. This killed 2 birds with 1 stone. I have a solid shelving system, and they will collect the runoff. I want there to be some runoff, b/c those smart pots suck water like no other. The scrubber is suspended above with a 6 arm bungee cord. I figured that would give me the flexibility to hang things however I wanted. Still some work to do... gotta set up the intake, drip lines, reflectix...

A big thanks to DHF for the inspiration and advice... DHF says he was pulling 6lbs a run easy with a similar setup... Hopefully I can do at least as well as him.

Thanks for the tip Red! That's exactly what I'll do. I just had to put something in there so I could mock it up... Just a little bit more work and we're gonna load this biotch up. :)

Those stacking bins are from amazon.com, $50 for 6. Free shipping. :) ha ha... I came home, and had 6 boxes stacked up looking like a fort in front of my door. ha ha ha ha...
Sittin back and watching... :tiphat:

Excited for the brand new grow show.

Thanks JB. Always good to have you aboard.

Looking good Bobble!. I'll be watching too, 'cause I know it will be a good show.

Yeah, ha ha... just wait and see what I do from here. :)

Nice new diggs there Bobble.

The man has a plan and he's goin' to put it in action:)

I love those Steralite stackable bins, I have several myself.
Great for all kind of uses (grow related or not).
The make a nice covered res with that hinged lid.

I like the idea you have for stacking them like that to catch any runoff.

Oh, and those Bobblebeans went pretty fast seeing as how they came up at such a random time.

Congratulations on the both the new setup and your SF offerings.

:good:

Good Growing

Came sooner than I thought Bro........Seems like I heard a month or so ?......

Couldn`t stand it huh ....been there.....LOL.....

Get on with it my buddy.......No guts no glory........Respect.........

Over here pullin fer yas ......Remember....... Environment`s everything....Way more important than watts per sq ft blastin their ass with lumens.......

70% humidity till end of stretch for optimum nutrient uptake and growth , then as low as possible below 50% with dehuey till harvey to prevent airborn nastie`s like PM and budrot.........

Your setup`s nuthin like mine was except for the lights , but let`s hope we can get yas close ta killer end results.......

Holler if I can help.......DHF......:ying:......

Bobblehead, great setup, love those bins, all these vertical grows have me thinking that as soon as possible I would like to change over (give my 17 yr old reflectors a break) to this type of grow. Thanks to all who contribute to this forum for opening up my eyes and showing what is possible. :thank you:
