Best hydro system for 2x2x4 area

[Guest]

Would you guys recommend running separate buckets or use a single rubbermaid w/ 2-4 plants in it?

With the rubbermaid tub maintenance and nutrient feeding will be easier, but at the same time I wanted my plants to have enough room for root growth.

The lighting for the area will be a 150w HPS.

here is a 2'x2' version of a hydro system i bought in october, mine is the 24 plant version though. its more of a sog style system but if im not mistaken you can order it with less pots. i tried a bubbler before with not good results, i think it was too warm in my cabinet, this drip seems to be workin fine so far.

150W ? 2' x 2'=4 sq ft=37W per sq. ft. Up the ante to a 250W at least-------------IF you get the rest Right you will be a lot happier with the quality and yields. Indoor grows do require an investment and it isn't necessarily cheap setting it up either.

I'd say to run at least a 250 watt hps. Make your own flood and drain system. Although Ebb & Flow buckets are nice too. Yet, you don't have a lot of space. I'd start with the ebb and flow to get up and running.

2x2 tray
10 gallon reservoir
200 gph pump
ebb flow fittings

thats the way id go
and id just pack it full of 3x3 rw cubes in there

so basically a 2x2 ebb flow setup should be simple and effective in your space
