Bubbleponics, Ebb N Gro I am going nuts trying to decide

OK
I like the concept of both systems.
Both can be expanded on without costing a ton like an EuroGrower or something.

I am LOST trying to decide which one to go with or why one is better than the other.

I see pros and cons to each.

Please help me here...

I have not grown in over 10 years and back then I did soil but now I want to get with the new age haha.

I like how the Ebb N Gro has each in their own pot but I wonder isn't that pot really too big to start??? One advantage it seems to me is when you are changing stages with a multi room set up you can simply unhook the bucket and take it into the next room and hook it up for the next stage.

I like the BubblePonics in how you just move the lid to the next room, I like the concept in how it works but I really do not see how 6 full sized healthy plants can really fit in one lid without overcrowding at the bottom and starting to fight for light below.

I plan on running two rooms and having around 20 plants in each room.

No thoughts, advice or words of wisdom?

I know many are saying you can build either of these two systems yourself
but Id rather take that time and put it into the construction of my room instead
of drilling holes and all.
 
I'm a dwc grower. Pros to me are I grow different strains and I perpetual harvest . So sometimes I need a bucket to have 800 ppm of veg nutes (week 1 flower) and another bucket will be plain water for it's last 5 days, another will be at 1400ppm bloom nutes. Cheap start up cost and cheap to expand. Con's daily or bi daily maintenance (3-4 days in early veg). Higher chance at root rot (solved with an insane air pump). Temp problems if you can't control your environment. Air stones can clog but you should be checking every 2 days anyway. Having to adjust ppm and ph for each bucket if you go that route.

You're asking whether or not to DWC in the DWC forums.. I think most people here are going to tell you to go that route. Ebb n flow is good and all.. but meh, I like ladies to have full access to water and nutrients AT ALL TIMES.

Also I think you're looking at DWC as being a single reservoir/lid for multiple plants (4 to 6 maybe?) This isn't true most of the time for a lot of us DWC'ers who use individual rezs for each individual plant need.

Lots of options man, check out some of each type of grow on here and decide what you wanna do. GL and remember TLC
