Okay the system is a DWC hydro set up with a pump that delivers a stream of water to the bottom of each net pot. This is on a timer that has 6on/off settings.
The cylinder's screen is a vertical Scrog, and so that is why I am posting here.
The area is a small 36" x 40"wide x 63" tall room in a cabinet area.
Right now the plants are pruned and manipulated to start their manifold growth, two lateral branch at the end of the stalk which will run along the base frame of the cylinder. I figure each one needs 12 inchs of growth. The lateral growth from this horizontal branch will grow up the screen filling it in.
First time doing this method, kinda jump the gun and did a lot early to the plant, but they wanted transplanted, so I did, the roots grew out of net pot, so time to get in hydro system.
I need good growth rate for this to work, like at least 1 inch a day, my original grow was planned with 2" growth a day, but if I can get an inch a day steady under the Tower, well I will be very pleased.
I do expect near 30 day vegy stage to get the plants to size for flowering, but that is just a estimate going of current growth.
Just got them in yesterday and realized I over estimated the length of plant I needed, kinda got long base stems.
This is a temp controller I made from a died window AC unit. I can set the desired temp, when it gets above that, all exhaust fans turn on and run until it is 2 degrees below the desired setting
The idea is to find the distance needed for your primary horizontal branch need to be, top the plant at that point, let establish from it, strip off the lower growth that is no longer needed.
This last one is to show the two lower lateral branch's that will be clones soon, or my attempt at it.
As they grow and I can/do achieve my goal I will keep pics posted of it, or of my failure, either way it is a show.
