Re: Vertical Indoor Farming
Well Im sure youre well aware of the symptoms of light burn. Just make sure to keep the bulb far enough away from the leaves :) consider a shade cover for the beebee plants otherwise u might stunt them with sunburn. Ur gonna wanna get urself some trellising for the beans and watermelon. Practice your hand pollination skills :) I will post some helpful charts laterHmr81 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 11:17 amYea love this idea, o think it should be fitted to the outside of every building but I'm a little crazy like that.
While the kids are off we will be trying to grow various veg indoors but we only have a hps spare, I'd rather it was an led but it is what it is. We will be trying to grow tomatoes, french beans, lettuce and water melon I believe so any advise warmly received!

Re: Vertical Indoor Farming
I am personally partial to he stacked shelf style as you might have guessed. I do like A frames for indoor growing but they are a lot more work to setup and maintain if you ask me. Unless u plan to use proprietart tech in a warehouse like we were doing

Re: Vertical Indoor Farming
I have seen growers train vining crops if all kinds. Cucurbits like cucumbers, bitter melon, sweet melons, and various summer or winter squash. In my outdoor garden I installed a chainlink fence around the perimeter that I train my winter squash onto and come harvest time I have 10-20 migass squash hanging off my fence :)
In your home build the trellising so you either walk under it ir comfirtably access the fruit that will hang beneath the leaf canopy. Try to fill a complete canopy light you would cannabis :)
You just dont want fruits on the floor unless you can guarantee they wint rot from condensation or damage or blah blah blah

Re: Vertical Indoor Farming
Note that you can do quite well with 100watt CFL screw in bulbs to start before budting out the HPS. I used them along with inefficient T12 tubes to grow strong seedlings of all kinds.
