Thanks for the detailed response. I'm planning to run 3 tubs to form a basic version of a perpetual bubbleponic system. I'll be making my own 5 gallon tubs but the guides on RIU seem to cover that aspect pretty well. I think I'm going to use CFLs for my first run due to cost efficiency, but how did you like running an LED? Also, was smell/noise ever a problem? I'm planning on a stealth cab and want it to be as fresh/quiet as possible in case maintenance has to come by or something.
I would love to grow some mother plants but I am trying to keep it small and that would require another space and I am in a two bedroom apt and do not really have the room.
I like my LED so far. With my filter and fan combo along with the Ona bucket there is no smell issues.
Thanks for the link to Roseman's guide, it's a great resource that I keep going back to. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind going into more specifics about how you set up your cab? I'm trying to figure out fan setup, light setup (I'm using CFLs, and I think I have them worked out for the most part), temp/humidity control, and anything else that will need to be a "part" of the cabinet itself. Any links would be greatly appreciated, since I'm pretty new to all of this.
