Question Growing marijuana upside down???

Ok always thinking of ways to up my yield and have this one I wouldn't mind trying, but seeing what info anyone might have.

I'm wondering if I take out some air cooled hoods and put in cool tubes, could I then hang plants off the ceiling and essentially double my floor space??

I know omega gardens have plants upside down, but they are always rotating around, can they just hang upside down?

A friend came across a case of these and doesn't have a use for them, so would be cheap too.


Thanks for any info or links.

Happy Growing

Alleycat

what about the water runoff? wouldnt it drip on the buds. just seems more complicated than choosing seeds. good luck if you do it.

It's made for growing plants upside down, just changing the plants they suggest with my own. I have friends with tomato plants and they don't drip. There is some neopren it looks like that goes right around the base of the plant, and the sides and bottom are all waterproof. Can't think how I'd be able to flush it though since the water doesn't come out the bottom. And probably just flip a light over to make sure it works before swapping out anything already in place. I'll be cloning tonght, so once they root, I'm gonna try this out.

Happy Growing Upsidedown

looking forward to it alley. I've seen some of your skills in action before and if anyone can grow upside down MJ you can.

You think instead of getting fucked up on this stuff you get fucked down?

Could you grow it upside down and put the light on the floor??? Maybe hanging buds, since they have support get fatter?? Hmmmm.. I feel a fun project brewing.
