I got the idea to do that from a 1970’s hydroponic book it showed tomato plants hanging from the ceiling. So I adapted it using pipe cleaners for the end and synthetic string, leading to a fastener. 4 fasteners per light, each supporting a single plant with a couple of strings going to major branches.

I believe I have seen that book, Krusty and the bucket guys did that but I only saw
the treez 
and the pipe cleaner super idea
thanks for posting a shot I did not want to use netting or trestle so strings might be the thing 
make beans and share them

I just use ph water with a bit of micro nutes. Seems to work good for me. I just try to leave them be and do their thang.

For some reason people never got along with krusty hah hah I think it was because he liked making fun of smaller growers.
Holy shit I worked like a dog in a chain gang today! Didn’t get time to take photos, but that’s ok. I’ll do that later tonight. I was doing my part, manufacturing like a motherfucker. It’s all about nucleation bro!!! ahh hem had to say that, a classic frenchy non-sequitur. Phew driving…humans… It’s a crazy world out there. Talked to some of the sponsors. Hey! They’re happy with things, so I’m happy. I haven’t made it to the store yet for the hydro supplies, but that’s definitely happening. I should have got more silicon tubing though. They sell you spaghetti line in the store as air line but it’s opaque, not good. If there is some shit stuck in there I like to know where, thanks.

The colas are way huge on these plants, no wonder they produce so nicely.
Here’s a secondary branch cola with thumb.
Finally, the meat breath! They are just little baby buds!
mm my fingers smell like cantaloupe from touching the big bud plant.

Looking beautiful man! Keep her going!
Thanks! I got some more photos, but they aren’t so good. Except… who cares? hehheh
you can see lots of blurry shit going on here! in veg! It seems the triploid plant clone is growing nicely. Better than it did as a seedling, I think.

You can see I’m growing some electrical cords. In the background, there’s a few cannabis plants hah hah. The plants are doing great! I have to crawl along on the floor to water, I think there is too much bud flop.

Yeah looks like the girls could use some bolder holders, lol!
I created an intricate webbing with pipe cleaners to support the branches. They are the bomb!
I have a suitcase full of them for this task! Never had to use them on the meat breath because they don’t form colas or yield as good.
Now, I don’t have to crawl on my stomach in order to water the plants.

I haven’t heard from krusty in a decade! Hah he would probably be disappointed I lost all those old good genetics I had when I was producing the kilos. Ahhh well, hopefully he’s out there still, growing the trees. I was always under pressure to hang those 1000s vertical lol! Said I’d get 20% more out of it. Probably true.

@JoeCrowe I have not either The Clown could grow the weed
I was on a Krusty Freedom Bucket board with him, High_Grade_Chronic, jalisco kid
I had never seen treez like that grown inside
and the naked vertical hanging bulbs everywhere 1000 of watts
soaker hoses in the bottom of the bucket, running air pumps that could run jack hammers
them Boyz could grow some treez
I will never regret spending hours reading their post and most of there posts were brutal to read
chaotic writing styles but worth every minute
much easier to read Heath Robinson’s work and he got the same kind of yield back than
and his coliseum grows and tunnels
were over the top than
love to read your posts and check out your work thank you for posting it
all the best and be safe

Thanks! I’m trying to anti-broscience the world, hah hah a thankless task usually. I find all the different ideas here to be very interesting! Constant fodder for things! excitement! If you’re living in your own world in the grow arena and aren’t exposed to ideas, knowledge tends to stagnate. Alright! now here’s some photos!
Nothing exciting to report, but things are progressing. Those shitty big bud clones are growing fast. I should raise the EC on the veg plants.

Did a minor cleanup today, had a few dead leaves. I am contemplating tossing that huge plant into bloom just to see what happens. It’s…really strange, if you ask me.

I think the plant that I originally hit with ludicrous EC has the largest colas. I should go on a sniffing test, see if it cost me any terpenes.
