Hello,

Ok so I am ditching SoG for a perpetual SCROG instead for several reasons.

Ill be running

2,000 real watts of LED.

Ill be using 5 gallon DWC with 10" net cups.

Now my space will be either an or 10 x 10 depending.

Now how many 5 gallon dwc do you think would be good for a good yield?

Im thinking 8-10 dwc buckets.
Looking to get around 2000 dry grams as my HPS I can get almost 1 gpw. quite close.

Looking to get 1 gpw of light which is doable no doubt thats not my question.

How many dwc for maximum yeild for an 10 x 10?

Veg for 30 from clone
flower 60-63 days

Thanks.

I have 2 - 8'x3' flower bays in scrog and eight plants in 5 gals works great in each. I would think you could do more like 12-15 and have like 6-8 square feet for each ones spread.

Ya I was thinking around 15. I was also thinking 20 but that seems too crowded. 15 5 gallon buckets seems good with 3 700watt LED fixtures. So 2100 watts or so from the wall.

Looking to pull 4lbs which is for sure doable with LED as I get very close with my HPS and I know LED has better yields from what I have seen.

Thanks for the info on that.

WIll be fimmed in veg and netted. Looking for about 2 foot plants in veg and around 4 foot plants at harvest.

Just want to maximise my space.
