Sea of Green Questions.

Hey guys. Been doing indoor medical grow for a year, now I want to try a sea of green perpetual grow. I just built an 80 watt 5600 lumen cfl grow box and I have some questions about the sea of green method. I plan to grow the clones I take from a small mother plant under a 400w HPS light.

Heres my questions.

What kind of containers work best for sea of green method, and where can I find them?
Is it fine to just throw them right into the flowering chamber as soon as they take root?
How would you recommend ventilation setup? I am about to build the flowering chamber this month.

Thanks in advance for the input. I cant wait to try this method of growing.

If you take the clones from plastic cups (raleys) you could transplant to 6 inch or 8 inch pots (home depot) then go into flowering. For a perpetual sea of green though you have to set up the next generation before harvesting. If your clones are little sticks with two leaves then you have to veg for a while to make more clones. You might be in a hurry but the plants don't care :-|. Getting the clones to grow and branch out is how you get the next generation, realistically.
I just think of the new clones, they need light and attention, the bigger ones that are established are lower maintenance, and the flowering ones are almost done.
Take time to make sure they are healthy before flowering because the HID lights can shock them switching from cfl. For the 400 hps have a desk fan for ventilation minimum, I had one set up in my bedroom just make sure you can open a window or something of you don't have vents. If you set up ducts and a box it will work great but you need cool fresh air exchange. Cfl seems ok for clones but I think the 4 ft fluorescents are better.
