@Jackofallfarming,
Sounds like a solid well thought out system
Looking forward to following along
Got my start in DWC, I just love the simplistity of soil
@Fun_Growin, I only focus on connoisseur strains im not into the hype of 10,000 different strian with 10,000 different. Its nothing really just an aeroflo 36 kit from amazon, 2 viparspectra 900w LED but there really only pulling 450 in flower but for the price these things are great. a few fans nothing spectacular no tent. Im a fan of simple. In my veg closet i keep 4 DWC buckets 2 of the same strian and 2 different strain and 8 bulb T5 with hortilux power veg bulbs with 2 single T5 with the same bulbs currently running Heavy 16 for nuts with Natures Nectar Terpene plus.
@Jackofallfarming,I would lower to around 8 and raise if needed thats the good thing with led u can basically place it on the plant nit literally but u know what I mean I tthink u can see in my gorilla diary how close mine is hope this helps
