the two tubs you see are GT, I just put into fruiting tonight. Ive only done two tubs at a time, but im starting 5 more PE tubs tomarrow.
So now at a total of 7 tubs, how do I make this one dual ballast light work to fruit all of them in the space allotted?
im assuming stack the tubs.

stack the tubs and put the light above the top tub and a foot or two off to the side.
Keep a small fan going or the door open for circulation when you have that many tubs in a small space.

I can raise the ballast to those upper grooves in the wall, it should be about right.
so stack them, hang the light over top of the top tube but more towards the wall so it seeps down to the rest??

or I thought maybe attatch it to the wall vertically and it will hit everything, but then I worry the shrooms will be all bent over

I had this same dilemma when I started running more than a couple tubs
Tiger said it! Stacking is your best friend dude. I have a similar light which I stand up vertically next to the tubs

ok so I finally put my 5 PE tubs into fruiting along with my 2 GT's. I rearranged the light to go vertical and its stuck to the wall using double sided adhesive mountning tape. Theres one stack of four and a stack of 3. The tubs are a couple inches off each wall and from eachother. do you guys feel this is efficient for proper growth?

well my PE's have been in fruiting since my last post and nothing has happened yet. I discovered that 3 of them had trich so I toosed them/ now im down to 4 tubs. The two GT are starting their 2nd flush while the remaining PE's are still doing nothing.
question: perhaps the others caught trich because of the stale air and not enough FAE?
Im still toying with it
Are PE's harder to start pinning or what?

From everything that I've read about PE they can be a little slow to fruit...remain patient and nice set up

I suppose if they start bending you could just spin the tubs, right?
