In about a week I will be starting my firs grow from seed in a DWC system. My problem is that I don’t know whether the do the grow in 10L buckets with one plant per bucket, or 50L tubs with 4 plant per tub which is how it is normally done. So the thing that I need to know is if I do it in the 50L tub will the roots become tangled by the time I sex them and get rid of the males? Thanks Deks ![]()

![]() | the roots will probebly get tanglaed and can cause problems when you have finally determined the gender. and having a bigger than smaller res. is the way to go.. sex the plants before they go in the system and save yourself the hassles ![]()

just simply start clones, the clones will be a known sex, and you can manage the timing better. ![]()

i hope you dont take this the wrong way,,,but if i tell you then you wont learn as well as if you go after the info on your own. starting seeds and taking clones is a very basic and very easy thing to learn to do. use a search to find out how to sprout seeds....and how to determine the gender ,,,,,and how to clone. it is really easy !!!! do you have a grow book? in not get one ,,it is worth the few dollors it cost. ![]()

![]() | hey man i have 2 afghans in a 50L DWC and they have just clicked into budding and the roots nearly fill the whole tub, i am using 2 dual outlet high powered air pumps to run them, 4 fairly sized plants is to many, go with 2 50L tubs with 2 per tub, also the problem with 4 is that there isnt enough space and your plants will be competeing with each other.
