"Vertigo" vertical cab grow.

[oldblue]

My 5 Vertigo babies are now 3 weeks old, so i thought i'd start on growlog on them. This is my 1st vertical light grow. For now, i have a 400 mh on them, and they're staying short and bushy. They're only about 5-6" tall, and each have 7-8 nodes already. I'm gonna veg them for another 2-3 weeks before flippin. Next week, i'm gonna take a few clones off of each, to fill in the empty spaces, once i sex them and chop the males. I wanna have 6 or 7 plants surrounding the light. Also, i'm gonna experiment with a vertical scrog setup on the big fems. Once i flip to 12/12, i'm gonna switch to my 400 hps, and add in a 600 watter on top of that, if temps allow me.

I was only able to take 1 snapshot before my battery died in the cam. I'll take more later.

For some reason, i can't quite figure out how to attach pics. At the bottom, it says, you MAY NOT post attachments. Hmmm. Any suggestions???

So, i just ordered a 600hps to add to my 400 for flowering. I have a question bout the best way to setup. When i add the 600 and switch to both hps's, how would be the best way to direct the lights (400 at bottom, with socket at lower end with bulb facing up, and 600 above it with socket at top with bulb facing down)??? Or how would u configure it for a single level 5 gal bucket dwc grow, sitting on the floor?

Also, there's gonna be 3 big 6wk vegged plants, along with 3 or 4 1wk vegged clones in between each big one. Since the clones are gonna not get nearly as tall as the big ones, would it be better to have the 600 on the bottom and the 400 above it???
