How much do people fill their monotub?
    #27038229 - 11/14/20 06:03 AM (3 years, 2 months ago)

Hello,

I'm about to cut holes in my monotub when I started to think about how much substrate I'm going to put in there.

I've head you don't want to go over 4" but was wondering if any experienced growers had found a difference in the amount they fill there tub ?

You shouldn't need to go over 3" deep. You'll get 2 good flushes which is all you can expect before getting diminished returns. Any deeper and you are just going to wait for the tub to colonize longer.

I like the no hole tub tek that Bod made, you can find it in the search. This leaves the tubs useful for other purposes since you don't cut any holes.

Bottom of the 1.5inch hole starting at 4inches up is perfect.

But if you're in a hurry, and really got to go
If you're in a hurry, might have to find out slow
That it's one thing to try and another to fly
You get there quicker just a step at a time
It's one thing to bark, another to bite
The show ain't over till you pack up at night

There is no need to cut holes in your plastic container.

Exactly! I been saying for a while now that there is absolutely no need to cut holes in the plastic bins.

Cool, prove it. You have 36 posts. People don't drill holes because they like the sound.
