Simplistic, yet great hydro system.

I used an Emily's Garden before and the plants will be a bit crowded, unless you are growing shorties. The tray is 24 in x 16 in and it only holds a total of 2 gal of nutes. I wrote a thread on how to build a bubbler which is nearly identical to Emily's Garden but you can choose the number of net pots and it hold approx 5-6 gal of nute solution.. in other words it is more forgiving since there is more solution.

BUILD YOUR OWN BUBBLER LINK

In the thread above I have 6 net pots, but I only used 4 max, and the 2 empty spots I left in the middle, filled with hydroton to prevent light into the res. It make checking and adjusting the solution a breeze - just lift out a pot, set it on top of the other middle one, adjust and replace.

I would go with Deep Water Culture. or short way to say it is DWC.

and this is just about how it works.as I was told and it has worked this way for me good.
so the plants will roots hang down in the water. and the air bubbles comming UP from the airstones will give the roots oxygen thus makeing the plant grow. U will put the 2-10 air stones in the bottem of UR water bucket.

eze wat is to do it juss like in the first pic.

If you are interested in seeing an Emily's Garden grow in progress, I'm doing a temporary DWC while I'm doing a grow room remodel. You can even see one I made myself.

I've not had a problem with them being too crowded, but I scrog. I actually grow 8 now in the same space I used to grow 6 with the Emily's Garden.

You might want to consider coco. Coco is considered a hydroponic medium and uses hydro nutes and hydro techniques, but you don't have all the hydro paraphernalia to deal with.

I use a variation of the Emily system. It was made for me by HIDHut.com. However I only use it as a veg kit, for which it is perfect because when they become crowded they get switched to individual 5 gal buckets.

A little bondage with the Emily... well, that sounds like something fun that I just might have to try soon

That's the one I'm running now, totally DIY, and working well so far. It's neat in that you can move the plants around in your SOG as they grow at different rates due to running multiple strains, as I do, or because of differences in light intensity in different spots. And it can be TOTALLY broken down in minutes and stuffed into the trunk of a car. Bonus.

A pic of one of my little Daddys Girls....Middle pic shows all the bubbles...I cut the outside edge off the smallest round air stone to fit in the bottom of the container....melted a hole in the side for the air hose to attach....Works like a charm...

Treetops, that is super cool.
Wait until you get those Daddys Girls flowering. I was shocked at how grapefruity they smell. OMG. I can't wait to try out that strain!!!

Treetops, very inventive. Cool air stone.

I would pull back that light a little for the first week or two.
