Rdwc spacing ?

I have 2) 4x8x6.5 grow tents I will be runing either 3x600 or 3x1k lamps horizontal on a flip flop so 12/12 each tent steady 3000w all day was wondering if 24 5gal buckets would be too much for a 4x8 space rez will be outside of tent on cement floors

Maybe trays would be more practical than buckets? Not sure if it would even be possible to fit 24 buckets in a 4x8 space, (they're what, 14" wide at the lid or so?) without accounting for floor space needed for plumbing.

Gonna us homer buckets I setup 12 mock buckets they fit in a 4x4 space so figured 24 would fit will be plastic I'd tubing like blaze's tutorial. Figured with 3000w I should be able to hit min 2oz per plant. Didn't want to do tables 4x8 tables encourage me to add more plants than I should.

I like growing big plants (get at least 8 oz/plant). I do 3 plants under 1,200 watts in flower. So I'd do 3-4 plants in the 4x8 space. If I was considering 3x1,000 watts I'd get another tent and put another 3-600's in there (if space provided).

If you partition your room and not use the tent you'd have more height. Otherwise you're gonna have to top, lst or fim them.

Yeah I gotta use tents I was gonna actually run vertical doughnuts like 8 sites per light goal is to hit 4+ from that tent but since using 2 identical setups on flip flops so total 16 per tent 4oz per plant only have 6.5 ceilings but 1ft for buckets so only have room for 5ft plants
