Hey everyone. Just looking for some opinions.
I'm setting up a 5x5 tent with 4 x 5 gallon DWC buckets and 8 x Vero29(A51 units).
I'm wondering if I should hang 2 units directly above each plant for the best coverage, or should I hang all 8 together directly in the middle of tent? I'm thinking 2 above each.

I think another 8 and the switch would really turn on!!

Why 9 as was discussed in the A51 thread?

I have 10 units coming. Should I use 9 in the 5x5? I was planning on using 2 units to veg 4 plants in one tent and 8 units to bud 4 plants in other tent.

If I were to setep a 5x5 with w90s? I would set a unit in every 20in x 20in box in the 5x5= 9 units and I wouldn't care about the 9 sets ratchets. Thats what I would do ,but there is no right way! Tons dif ways to do it.

So basically, 9 units and I'd totally maximize my 5x5 area if I space them each at 20"x20"? Makes sense! I think the extra screwing around with more ratchet hangers may be worth it in the end.
On a side note, do you think I'd have room for 5 plants in the 5x5? One in each corner and one in the middle? I'll be flowering at 24" with each plant topped twice.

what would the overall length and width if they were bolted together? actually the more I think about it? I would bolt them together in 2s and then space the 180watt panels out! yep now u just gotta figure out if 8 or 10 will be what cha need?

You've got plenty of room for 5 in there. I'm running 6 plus whatever clones I don't use in small pots scattered around in my 5x5 and I will be going to 9 flowered a bit earlier

Or you could take the TGA quadrant monster approach with 4 if you find the cobs have the balls to carry that large of a plant

Where would that 9th panel go? ;)
So you think I can get away with 8 in the 5x5? It's a tough decision, I'm racking my brain over this. Hard to know until I have the units here lol.

I've though about doing 9 also, but I have 8-9 weeks to veg clones in the veg tent until the other tent is ready to bud them. I think 6 for my situation would be pushing it
