vertical ucxl 4 site, how to arrange??

[jayww]

how would you arrange the lighting for a 4 site uc.

would be 600 watters vertical

would this work or is some other variation better??

X=light
0x0
x x
0x0

also, whats a good spacing on centers?

cool, can a undercurrent setup be setup that way??

i would just need to plum it that way with the 3" PVC??

whats the difference between the uc 4 and the ucxl4? is it just longer pvc for the plant spacing, or is there a bigger pump or something?

yah i'm aware that if you have a bigger space, you use more lights. my question is, does the uc 4xl vs the uc4 have any different water or air pumps, or if its really 25$ more just for some longer sections of pvc. in that case, i'd just buy the regular one and go to the local hardware store and cut my own lengths of pvc.

strawD I'm going to bet that it's for the longer PVC. just go to HomieD's and make it as long as you want. I DIY'd a UC4XL and I'm using a ECO396 and see plenty of pump pressure. Beside u don't want the pump too strong.
