Mono tub questions
    #28367389 - 06/20/23 03:11 PM (1 year, 6 months ago)

Howdy fellas, I’m somewhat new to cultivation and have some questions about my next grow.

I’m doing the uncle bens tek, 6 bags total. Based on my research on ratios and containers I believe with substrate and all it would fit almost perfectly in a 27qt tub I’m looking at, and this is where my questions start.

The tub is 16.5”L x 13”W x 12”H. Which leaves it in this weird spot where it’s technically a rectangle but almost a square. From what I’ve seen online people prefer to use rectangular tubs, is that absolutely essential?

And my next question is regarding the holes. From what I’ve seen online there should be 6 holes each 1-2 inches in diameter, 2 on the short sides and 4 on the long sides. Is there a specific diameter to qt size ratio I should follow, or will I be good as long as I’m within 1-2 inches. Also, since the tub is a halfway square should I only do 4 evenly spaced holes, or all 6?.

Thank you for your patience, I know it’s a lot of newbie questions lol

Check This link how for the best way to make tubs in my opinion now

Square or rectangle doesn't matter.

Don't be surprised if your grow ends up contamming out. UB is a meme around here for how often it is bacterial and newcomers think they are sending healthy spawn to grain. Sending 6 bags in one tub doesn't sound like good chances IMO and I would probably go shoeboxes to hedge my bets.

the deeper the container the better, because cube substrates enjoy having lots of air/space above them. With perfect air exchange, these tubs fruit themselves

you dont need the actual coir/grain substrate to be deep,
usually that just sets up for side pinning

its the space above it that the cubes like
