I would buy either an ebb and flow or an aeroponic setup. 3 - 4 1000 w mh/hps switchable ballasts, vented hoods, performance bulbs with enhanced reds and blues. An inline fan with enough cfm to vent your lights and room. An intake blower. Carbon filter. Co2 tank with powered regulator hooked to a timer. Good hydro nutes. A reverse osmosis machine.If your in california I imagine you can go to a dispensary and get some clones of some nice chronic strains. You would have all your based covered (light, water, media, ventilation, co2, temp/humidity, nutrients) You can shop around and find some good deals online. I bet could get that setup for 2 g's if you invest your money in the right comanies. Take a look at the best deals thread thats stickied I believe in the general forum. Good luck, hope this helped.

i personally havent used the aeorponic system but for ebba and flow you would use rockwool or something similar for propagation. So i would designate a seperate section for mothers and clones, i would get a couple 4" t5 high output florescents for that. Metal halide IMO is too intense for propigation, the plants get lazy and take forever to grow roots when they have all that light.

What do you think about this baby

Thats nice. Is it deep water culture. That would cetainly work and probably cost you a little less. I'm diggin the seperate resivoir That should make getting your ppm/ec/ph ajusted pretty simple. But personally if i had that kind of money to drop on a grow i would do something more along these lines...What do you think about this baby
Its all preference though.

Would the yeild be about the same on both or is your set up better?

I dont know if you have read any of uncle bens tutorials but if i were to use that aero system i would so somewhat of a sea of green and i'd use uncle bens topping tequnique (i believe its stickied in advanced cultivation) and it would be just a sea of enormous buds all over the place coming from every angle! Thinking about it though you would have to get creative when it came to staking you plants up when they cant hold their weight.

I havent used either system so i dont wanna come at you like i know all about it, you may want to alk with someone whos experienced with hydro first hand but i do know that deep water culture has your roots submerged in water with an air pump oxygenating the water, whereas with the aero unit the plants hang in the air and get misted with nutrient water. So DWC never has time for the roots to come in direct contact with oxygen. I know that is a definate benefit. But in reality boh systems would produce excelent results. I just think the aero is a kickass piece of equiptment.
