Yea thought it would be.
Will take a few runs to get dialled in I’d say.
And good idea jzs.
My best harvests have been a mixture of mh and hps. Plus will save a bit on initial set up costs going that way.

What size do you want to go? 3x3 and 4x4 are standard for a manageable size res under. The X-Trays and Duralastic are deeper, although there’s a good generic 3x3 low rise at only 100mm deep.
A 4x4 is best with a 200L res and a 3x3 is half or less of that in res size, depending on how deep you flood.

I did 3x3’s for years and now 4x4. 3x3’s easier to manage. 6 inch sq per plant is about the tightest pack you want to go with no veg. I just gave a very light feed to clones under the T5’s about 2-3 days before plant out to get new growth going.

You’ve got experience with DWC so that’ll serve you well with F&D, like res maintenance, light proofing root zone etc..

70% is probably closer to where you should be jzs but I start bringing my humidity down a bit to be on the safe side early to mid flower.
Just try not to fluctuate humidity too much, humidity increases quite a bit when lights are off.

Was thinking 4x4 ozy.
So 200 litre res....
I’m thinking from what I know and from your guys advice that I’ll setup for 3 x 4x4 tables, (perpetually harvesting a table every 3 weeks) 3 x 200 litre res’s a shit load of clay balls and net pots.
I already have 3 big air pumps, one for each res. And I’ll order a spare air pump.
What size submersible pump would be best for a 4x4 ozy?
And yes I’ve learnt the hard way with air leaks, high water temps, not keeping res, air stones, line etc sterile enough :roll:
and another bonus to this is I will only have 3 res’s to worry about and not 12 buckets lol.
