So I've begun to think I've chosen too small of a growspace for my roots. I'm new to hydro, but have bought a lot of stuff I think would fit together. One of those things are pipes I meant to grow in. No media used, just spraying water inside the pipes.
Pipes are 110x2000mm / 4''x80''
The thought was to divide these pipes in 7, maybe 6 plantsites. That would give each plant a possible rootvolume of:
If 7 sites: ~2,8L / 0,74gal. of pipe.
If 6 sites: ~3,2L / 0,85gal. of pipe.
If just a netpot, stem fixed, with this rootvolume, how big of plants could I grow? How long could I veg if at all? I could change this if acting fast, but if possible to continue as I thought, I'd prefer that, but not if it's completely worthless. I'm not new to growing, but to this hydrothing. I was of the impression that with no soil I could shrink the "rootpart" massively. Now I could really use some advise please, if someone with the knowledge would be kind too.
Sincerely
