Wow you sure are a n00b if you think you need SIXTY FOUR plants to do well with a 1000W HPS!:rolleyes:

Like the rest said, you are wasting Time, Space, Money, Potential plants & bud, just to try and go big or go home.  Start smaller and work your way up so you know what you're dealing with.  That many plants is going to be outrageous to take care of.

Also, if you don't have seperate resivours for each plant, if you get a contamination, or nutrient or ph imbalance, instead of having one plant get burned or sick, they all will. :hehehe:

Quality, not Quantity.

you don't know what you're talking about... having 16 or 64 plants in that space isn't going to change anything. hydroponics is always 1 reservoir many plants... and typically people use monocultures so growth, and nutrient neeeds and such are all the same. all plants will be subject to the same factors not because of the reservoir but because theyre all the same... 64 plants will be treated like 1....




Hydroponics is not always one reservoir, DWC in buckets for example.  Also the point of my post is, if he is new to cultivation and all, wouldn't you tend to reccommend something along the lines of a handful of DWCs, instead of a potential 64 plant ebb & flow or other?  I'm just trying to stress that like you said, all plants will be treated as one, something goes wrong its all not just one.  Do you not agree?
