Double tubs peeps

To all the people who have used the Double tub set up, have you switched to monotubs?

I've got one of each going right now, double and mono in my closet.  IMO the mono tub is less prep work and less space, so why bother with a double?  I keep my double around though in case I want to do a really thick substrate layer  :thumbup:

Save you money? Maybe. Save you space? Not necessarily. In my opinion, and in my experience, mono tubs do really well when you use larger tubs. I recommend a minimum of 6-8 inches in between the top and bottom holes for proper gas exchange. I have tried smaller tubs and they just didn't work very well. Larger tubs equal larger cost, so it's all relative when you compare the two.

Double tubs can use smaller space because two tubs will create more air flow than one smaller tub can. I typically use a 33 gallon tub for my mono tub grows and no smaller than 19 quart for my double tubs. I think both can go hand in hand though. I'm sure there are some people who have used smaller mono tubs but again, not optimal results in my experience.

I agree with Wronguy. If you're going mono, go bigger. To save space, I've gone down all the way to 12qt DT's and they're working great. I've tried the same size doing mono and I get few or no fruits at all and usually overlay. My thread awhile back with the PR's growing was two 12qt tubs.

They look even sexier when they're filled with caramel-colored Puerto Rican nipples! :wink:

I used a 124 quart mono tub with 12 1 inch holes stuffed with poly fill and it worked great.
