    Default 400w tent setup 1st ever grow!

    Tent setup:
    400w Cool tube, carbon filter, 2 6" inline fans and dwc system

    Nutes:
    Jungle juice M/B (Lucas formula), Big bud, Bud candy, Overdrive and Final phase

    This is my 1st time growing but i have done tons of research and decided i'll go the hydro way but i have a few questions. Would i be able to grow 4 plants successfully in the dwc system to the right ?(picture below) Should i adjust the ph daily or weekly? How much should i expect to harvest off of 4 plants in this type of setup? Do they look healthy so far? Again this is my 1st grow so any suggestions or tips are welcome!

    Are you me? I'm doing the same thing with almost the same setup in a few weeks (bin dwc, 400w tent, cooltube, Big bud, Bud candy, Overdrive and Final phase...)

    Only thing, I will say your roots will get tangled up very quickly with how close your plants are going to be. Most DWC are 1 plant per bucket for this reason. I purchased almost the exact same bin as you, except I only made two holes for plants, each as far away as possible from the other. I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure 4 is way too much.

    i mean the bin i have is pretty deep so would it be a good idea to put something dividing the inside into four slots?

    You can try it if you want... personally I don't think it would be worth the effort... why not get a few less plants and just veg them a week or two more? They will grow super quickly in a hydro setup anyway

    oh... I thought you had like 2x2....

    why don't you just use 4 5 gallon buckets with a reservoir? That's what I would do.
