1.75" substrate dept....deep enough?
    #7603608 - 11/06/07 05:01 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

I found some black plastic trays that are 8 x 8 x roughly 2" deep which leaves me with about 1.75" for substrate. How will this depth fair?

that should work but 3-4 inches is ideal from what I read.... it will work fine but its less than ideal .. its a matter of yield .. the deeper
it is the more the yield, but returns stop at 4 inches or so and above
good luck

Ive had great results with 1inch bulk subs but the deeper the better and thats for sure.

Right now I try to keep it to a 3inch minimum, I spawned 3litres of rye/millet to 3inches of coffee grinds+coir...

the container itself is 9x8....



Should give off some nice sized fruits.
just to serv as reference :smile:
have fun experimenting.
