best aero setup for my situation?

i have a 4' x 8' area to dedicate to a hydro or aero setup which will be under 2 750w hps lights. my room will be fully enclosed with a 10" fan cooling my lights. i just picked up a sentinel chhc-4 off ebay for $565(free shipping ) and plan on picking up a tank and regulator tomorrow.

i have experience with soil but have really been looking forward to aeroponic growing. i have a seperate 4' x 8' veg room and wanted to do a perpetual grow since i will have babies ready to flower every weeks or so.

so i was wondering, what would be the best aero setup for my situation? i dont mind diy setups, in fact, id rather build it myself if it was more efficient than any setups on the market. i was leaning toward a rdwc setup, but i dont't know if that would be ideal for my situation.

i look forward to any input on my situation.

Ebb and flow would be nice for a first no soil grow.. Never done aero, always heard it was hard to keep it up and going ( CON, no exp. just word ive heard ). Perks are you could do an Aero / DWC in one ( PROS ). Would be a simple DIY though, half inch pvc with legs and sprinklers or even foggers im guessing? spread out acorss the pvc. With a good pump to keep the psi up. GL look forward to PIC

yea ill definitely have pics. my controller should come in the day after thanksgiving, i just finished puttying the drywall to seal the room today. i have a bunch of bubbas that are ready to flower right now so they're going to be the stars of my first run. while the bubbas are flowering im going to veg out 6 of these larry og beans i picked up and then try to find the best pheno to be the new mother pumping out fresh young babies into my room.

another question, how many buckets can i fit under one 750 w light with an rdwc setup? someone told me 16 but that seems like a lot to try to squeeze under one light.

dear moderator,

can you put move thread to the aero forum so i don't have to make a new one?

I would make a larger Flood Table set up as it allows you to break it up in too a few sections for different strains or for perpetual grow. They have some really nice Flood And Drain system that are not too expensive. I have a 2x2 botanicare flood and drain system for my veg set up but they make larger like 4x4 or 4x8. I would do two 4x4 systems that way you can harvest every month. Theres a picture of my flood table in my veg tent in my growjournal.

If you must have aeroponics check out these http://www.hydrofarm.com/pb_master.php?pageNum_Recordset1=1&category=6&totalRows_Recordset1=76

Good Luck

thanks for the advice swift. very nice setup btw. i was trolling around the net last night and came across a stinkbud thread. i was thinking about building 2 stinkbud sr. setups and then making a dwc cloner in the veg room. i will have pics soon!
