Hello vertical-fellow
I was thinking, if you put shelfs on the back wall you would give your girls more room to spread along the mesh, and therefor more light as well! Tweaks you know

Have you finished trimming that yet?
wow!!! looks good!
Thanks boys... Still balls deep trimming.. I'll check in a few days from now.
weedloco.. I definitely could maximize the space a little better and use a third wall. I could also add ac and co2 and seal it, I also would like to put a row of plants on the floor, I would also like to use more light. Haha BUT it's rockin as is. Hope that doesn't come across wrong, I just mean I'd love to do it maximized but I am limited by my state on plant number and on funds for more equipment : )

DUDE YOU COULD MAGICALLY MAKE YOUR ROOM BIGGER ADD 17 MORE ROWS AND 70 MORE LIGHTS!
Just kidding. I am trying to model my 8x12 room after yours. I will have a grow journal on it once it gets up and running.
How 'bout a yield per light or watt figure when you are all done?
Great job BTW!

I understand your limitations on plant number, and taking that, and the lack of funds into consideration, you could still give your girls more of the available light by using the back wall
Also, have you thought of getting hold of a trimming machine, I know it's a pain in the ass to trim large amounts of bud:S

Thanks man, I'll keep an eye out for your journal

I could have used the back wall with a longer veg time for sure but I was ready to go and they made two VERY thick walls as is. This was my first run at it I'm sure I'll dial it in a bit better. If the trimmin machines didn't ruin the quality of the bud I'd use one for sure. But alas they do and I can't justify pouring love into growing dank plants and then subjecting them to the (in Mr. Danks words ; ) ) "The suck cut". Trimming sucks though no doubt I'm so burned out on it I could puke.
Well guys the numbers are in!!!
I beat the gpw barrier, any guesses before I reveal the total yield???

7lbs dried...final answer. Next time you need a hand mang just ask... I'm one of the rare few who actually doesn't mind movin fiskars for days on end..

I'm guessing right around 5lbs...I had a feeling you would break GPW.
I'm probably gunna lose my mind hand trimming a room like this every 5 weeks...takes like 6-8 hours to properly trim a pound but I feel like people deserve top quality hand trimmed product for the prices they end up paying at the consumer level.

Right in between boys. Final yield was 5.7
So right at 1.28 gpw. Here's the thing though. I had plants that ranged from 4.5 ounces all the way to 9.5. If for example they all would have been the 9 ounce plants.. that would have been right at 2gpw and 9 pounds! Point being that this is a long way from being dialed totally in.
That said I think the room did pretty well for my first shot at vertical.. Definitely be doing it again only this time flowering each side 4 weeks apart.

An excellent thread ..Thanks SELFHEMPLOYED
Epic.... Nothing else I can really say man.. To think this is your 1st time running this setup, I do believe you can and will get this system dialed, and break your record , and quite possibly many on this sites...What was the best yielder out of the garden????

5.7 on the first run!
I think this proves that 3# per light is possible with vert!
I'm sure this will inspire many people to make the switch...

Wow! Way to go! Great run!
So I remember earlier you said you tried a few different things as far as topping/ training etc. Which ones did better in the vert grow? I usually top and tie the shit outa my plants but a lot of these old vert guys say to leave 'em and let 'em grow straight up.....your thoughts?

Title of thread is misleading, I wasn't able to run 3k, at about 5 days into flower i realized it was too hot so It was flowered under only 2k and 1k mh for the last week.
Top and train into the trellis ftw.
thanks for the love man.
Congrats on the good yield, you deserve it.
Thanks, preciate it
Thanks man good luck on the setup
Funk.. My man.. I'm stoked buddy, turned out better than I expected. I'll def keep that in mind for next time, always need an extra hand! Biggest yielder was toe jam, just over 9.5 ounces. Smallest was the royal and the white at about 4.5 ounces a piece.

Thanks man!
