Anyone using these for a system? Im hoping to use these for an upcoming RDWC Undercurrent system that I am building. 1 1/2" PVC mains with 3/4" PVC return with an adjustable 2110 GPH Inline pump.
I wanna use 1 for a res and 3 on each side.
Not sure how many net pots I should put in each tote, I can fit 8 uniformly on each and there is a bit of space in between. Or I can do 4 on each in a diamond pattern with plenty of space.
I may or may not try the scrog technique. So which way do you think would work best

What would be ideal, The most I should put in each tote?

I assume you'll be leaving them in there from veg on? how long do you want to veg them? if you're willing to wait and make a few massive plants then just use the 27 gallons for one each. otherwise you can make it up in volume...

One or two. It really matters about how much room the roots have to grow. More room for one plants roots mean a bigger plant.

I just don't like the idea of root entanglement

I usually veg for a month or so. Want to get as much as I can for each run in the shortest time. Thats why I am considering a scrog and why I was wondering if 8 in each tote would work.

Now another question, would less bigger plants be better than more shorter scrogged plants
