looking for a cartian design

[ispammedu]

i was talking to a friend and he was telling me about this new hydro setup they have built in america, all i know about it that it is a hexagon shape based on 3 levels with a clear plastic pipe down the center with 3 1000 watt lights in the middle with fans on top and bottom so the pipe does not melt. apparently this design you can fit 30 plants on each level. i think it was miami where it was built but i am not sure this is just something that i have heard. i am really interested to see the design because when i heard it it sounded so simple but just so effective. i have been trying to figure out how it is built but a original source would be handy.

 

btw first post, and cool site i am a huge po thead

Go look on www.hightimes.com it called a colleseum and they usually have ads for it in the mag.

And I would dispute its simplicity. Not to mention obscene numbers of plants.

Here in Oz I think you should avoid those kinds of toys, for two reasons.

 

First, if we get caught, we get charged based on the # of plants you have regardless of how big they are. The number of plants that it takes to fill one of these circular growing systems is enough to have you classified as a "larger than commercial" grower - very bad.

 

Second, these things might sound like they're going to save you space, but they won't. To fill it, you'll need a lot of cuttings. You'll need a fair few mothers (and space devoted to them) to provide enough cuttings on a regular basis, and you'll need a location where you're going to raise that many cuttings. Plus the workload is just painful.

 

Keep it simple mate.

I agree, simple is always best with most things.
