Would love to start a discussion on vessel/tank/bucket dynamics.
I.e. what is best practice for vessels when used in a hydro application. Actual documentation from relevant research scores extra points!
I will kick it off with a few questions.
My setup looks like this:
- What is the ideal volume of a single plant vessel in DWC?
I had some discussion in another thread where it was alluded that larger vessel volume equated to bigger rootballs and better growth. This makes sense to me and seems logical. If this is the case, what is the point of diminishing return, what is the ideal volume?
- Vessel shape, does it matter?
I am using buckets. Does round vs square make a difference? Square seems like it would accept the plumbing easier, like the bulkhead fittings and such.
