Hey guys,

It seems to me that, a fixture using QBs mounted to a side wall and oriented perpendicular to your overhead fixture, could give you nearly total-light penetration. Then I wonder - why I've never seen it used "successfully".

I can't be the first person to observe that this configuration puts light into all the space currently in shadow... so why not do it?

School me. (please)

You know, I've thought about this too - I'd love to build a whole enclosure out of QBs so literally the entire wall and ceiling of it is diodes, and just run them nice and low. It'd be expensive as hell but the coverage would be insane! I feel the same way though... I don't know why people aren't running these on the side too.

Sounds like an interesting topic for an... experiment?

Myeeeeeeeeees, quite.

You must have enough QBs by now to do it too!

I think Penetration is so insanly high even in a horizontal setup that an additional vertical fixture would just be ridiculous.... But im curious too of course!

Penetration is certainly better than ever, but what if you didn't have to lollipop at all? If you could just let it grow in every direction and still ensure 100% budsite coverage.

You'd have the light concentration of outdoor growing with the benefit of the microclimate/environment of your indoor space. Pretty game-changing if it could work.
