DubTub vs Plastic bag w/ Shoeboxes - TEST

So I am getting mixed theories as to which idea is best so I decided to run a test myself, and thank God I have exactly 2 shoeboxes currently available to test this on. Now the one with the double shoebox (dubtub) has started pinning and it was kept in the dark too long causing weird random pins, whereas the one with the bag is in the beginning pinning stages and was put in lighting at the right time.
Which one do you guys think will turn out better? And lets put this debate to a rest! Hopefully...lol.

If everything was exactly the same I'd say both would be equal in terms of results. You could argue use of resource.
You got any holes in that bag?

Yes i poked holes in it with a toothpick. Should I make them bigger?
And how to I do air exchange for the DubTub? Or the best way?

The dub tub should get plenty of air on it’s own, if u pull it out of the big tub u should see a decent crack for air where the dub tubs meet each other

I'll be watching too.

I'm shoeboxing soon on my first grow ever. Good stuff here! The FAE looks good, but I think the main difference will be the light. I've been following this thread about blue vs white vs ambient-ish light. Just based on his results so far, it's possible the bag blocks the blue light and much of the spectrum and might cause under performance. If you have a third shoebox, try a white or clear bag.

Whatever one you're better at or have more experience with will probably do better. Anyone that knows the principles of growing and has the eye for conditions will make both work well every time.

I wonder if it is better in the large tote or not.
