this actually looks perfect..
says its 4' in diameter and 6' tall and 1200 watts is perfect.. says it comes with everything to get going except the obious light/ventillation and growing medium.. all for $1000+ truck shipping..

Actually saw one of these in a local shop... set-up, not running w anything. Seemed like it could work, but saw some issues w it... like cleaning, the poles weren't anchored very strongly (wiggled), & some other functional issues + plant numbers. Would imagine that could get it running & then wish had built it own my own, ya know?

Also, the 6's don't cast that deep... the 1k's would work much better.

Could try the E&G, or the like, & grow six 3-4' tall plants around a 1k. Less expensive, more adaptable & lower on the plant counts.

Just some thoughts. Peace brother.

Dude....Make sure those are stable. That looks like a cheap imitation of the "Coliseum". Remeber grow stores are sales rooms too....How much unnessisary additional crap do they readily sell you there anyway? Take your $1000 bucks and buy some 2x4s' and wood weather proofer and build a towering circular set-up and save 600 bucks. A home made PVC set up would be better than that.

i wish there was a low cost solution to vertical sogs.. i lack diy skills and the time needed to build it..

any other options? who makes similar products?

I doubt that you are not going to find a vertical system cheaper than that. If you have DIY skills, it is an easy setup to make.

I looked into vertical units years ago, but it is important to me to keep my plant count under 24 plants (above that is a mandatory jail sentence if busted).

I can't think of a prepackaged verti system that can be fully recommended.

Granted you stated no time and/or diy skills, but try looking up Heath Robinson for some verti-diy ideas. He can be quite inspirational... you'll be walking away with all sorts of enthusiasm! WOW is what I felt. Peace.
