Alright So this is my first ever post to a cannabis forum So bare with me please. So I have a 4x8 tent with 2 315 cmh I was gonna do a 12 site rdwc . I was either thinking by doing them in 3 rows with 4 5 gallon buckets per row and keeping my rez in side the tent or just doing 2 rows of 6 and moving my rez outside the tent. I wanna do a sog And veg my plants shorter So that i can harvest more frequently and train them so that i can fill the room up completely. I was thinking of going witha 50 gallon rez so that i wouldn't have to change it out every other day and im using 2 in pvc pipe connecting my buckets I bought a 2600 gph water pump and a 1750 gph air pump with 12 outlets that will be going for an air stone per bucket and then have another pump with 2 air stones in the rez. I uploaded a little sketch of the 2 rows of 6 concept that I was thinking If you have anything you think I should do to be more successful please dont be afraid to reply and if you have any questions Id love to answer them but please forgive my horrible spelling and grammer and hopefully my post gets better and better!

move the control res outside the tent for sure.

do you have a chiller to keep the water temps in the optimal range?

2 x 315s arent gonna be enough. You will want 3 of them atleast to have optimal overage across space( 3x8 canopy), theres no 315 on the market that can cover 4` in any direction.

I own a 315 and absolutely love it, but optimally, it will only cover 2.5x2.5 at best.....Some of the bigger 315s are good for 3x3. So at best you have enough light to cover 3x6 currently.


Love your build tho, gonna be a sick setup once your done and its up and running.
Best of luck
