My first run in a tray was some lemon kush and i only had 16. Og stretches 2 3 x and personally id go with like 20. Just make sure to trim off the lowers or youll het a lot of popcorn.

your saying i could go 16+ cuttings under a 600w in a 3x3 table right...sorry just my amateur is just anally double-checking?

How many cubic feet is the room? What are you running in/out fanwise? Have a carbon filter to match?? What size is that res? I run 40 gallons and sometimes by water change day, pumps close to suckin air.

and you mean by the plants soaking the water/nutes and the evaporation that much of the reservoir is used up and gone?

16 would be a good number to start with, but that is all strain dependent and based on a 1 to 1.5 ft veg. If you go straight into flower with no veg time then id recommend packing the tray full for a sog effect. And yes by the time i do my 10 day water change the pump will be pretty close to sucking air due to useage and evap.

My ph is always around 6.0, whether its my spray bottles for clones, water im feedin mothers or reservoir for my trays, always 6.0. My flower room trays are watered everyday. They get watered at transplant and veg tray watering is always depending on how heavy my cubes are. Heavy cube is still saturated with water.i only use calmag in flower. With ebb and flow, you want to run one strain at a time in the tray, Different strains take different nutrient levels.

When i start from seeds, they stay in the 1.5s in the dome till i see roots out of the bottom, on no nutrients just ph water, then they go to a very weak soloutiin in the 4x4 cubes.

With seedlings they dont need a very strong light till theyre established. You can get away with a 6500k t12 setup for seedlings and clones. You dont want to put the seedlings directly uder an hid unless the light is very high up. All of the seeds ive ordered have been fems. But that was just because i was ordering single seeds of like 5 strains at a time hoping to get lucky. Ive had no bad experience with fem seeds except for reservas kandy kush, that thing hermed on me so bad ill never give it a try again. But as a side note, none of the strains i run now came from fem seeds but i have kept and revegged fem seed moms with no ill effect.
