I am trying to do a setup with the yield you get but am thinking of going with flood tables and was wondering if you ever used them or just the buckets? Also what was the best strain you have grown? I just ordered TGA subcool seeds "ace of spades and Jilly Bean" along with Cali Connection "larry og and Jamacian D" and some different Dinafim strains looking for a good commercial strain.

My yields suck right now. But that's changing. :)

Best strain has to be Bubblelicious. No matter what you do to it, it lives and loves making THC.

Ebb & Flow trays and the rockwool cubes suck. Each big rockwool cube is like $4-$5 and you throw em away every time. Hydroton you wash and put back. I also like the inability to really overwater plants in Hydroton. Everyone has preferences of course, you can tell mine. I like buckets.

i am looking for a setup that can take care of itself for a day or 2 if i leave town and is cheap to start. I have no problem with 4 bucks a cube for rockwool if i can get 1 to 2 zips per plant. I am going to do multiple 4x8 tables SOG style. I need a fast turn over rate about 10 lbs every 60 days.

For 10lbs every 60 days you need 5-7 lights that are 1000w. For leaving your room every few days unattended, both systems (buckets or flood trays) are pretty much identical for your day to day maintenance requirements. You can leave em for a few days but for $100 you can also get a wifi camera so you can watch it password protected over the Internet when you are away. 48 hours away from plants probably wont hurt much, but if your new to growing, it'll KILL you! Once you know the systems ins-and-outs and little technical quirks then feel free to vacation a little. :)

CONTEST:

- Go to attitude seeds website. (If you need the URL, your already disqualified :))

- Spend $500 USD (not GBP) on seeds

- Consider my growing conditions. Indoor. Hydro. Buckets. 1000w HPS.

- Consider my desires. Under 4ft tall finishing. Under 3 weeks veg time from clone. Indica dominant, not sativa dominant. Fastest flowering time possible, nothing over 8 weeks. Huge yields, nothing but the largest. Each pack of seeds would be used to get a mommy or two and clones from that. WE'd like a variety of strains and have 14 lights to work with so plenty of space! :)

Whoevers shopping cart I pick gets a free oil dish. :)
