I am American and thus use the dumb system... to give you an idea of how I run things I put 15 under each 1000 watt lamp which has a tray under it of 4X4 feet. The clone supply has been less than ideal but I was considering doing a shit load of tiny plants for each light, but lots of friends discourage me from doing any more than 1 per square foot thus giving me a max of 16 under each light.

Or, you could figure out the mean average of water intake before run-off, (2 cups, a quart, a gallon...) keep 'em on the ground, and water each accordingly. I've always restricted run-off, but I do monthly flushes which helps to alleviate salt and nute build-up.
Home is a rental... so I can't really be putting things in other rooms. Even if I did, the table needs to be higher than the resi in general right?

As for the MH during flower, I've done that once... didn't notice a huge different really. My plants aren't stretching a ton... the nodes are fairly tight they are just too damn small.

As for putting them back on the ground... I think this seems like the logical option here if not a SOG with tons and tons of tiny plants under each lamp. I have a FloTec pump that empties a 100 gallon resi in about 15 minutes that I could use to pump the water outta a trash can or something. Would this work? Send it into my drip system and cut it off at the average amount of water needed to get some run off.

As for your flush... do you take them outta your room to flush them or just give them Ph'ed water? When I did my first run with them on the ground I brought them into the bath tub and it was an absolute nightmare and I'm not so willing to do it again.

Apparently DripClean by House and Garden eliminates the need for both run off, and an end flush to get rid of the salts - you should check it out.

Dealing With Height Restraints in 3600 Watt Grow - Advice Appreciated Packed 3600 watts into a small room with 7.75 foot high ceilings - I know many of you have bigger height problems but when dealing with this amount of plants it's pretty damn difficult. To date, I've ran six cycles, my very FIRST one being the best when I simply had them on the ground in three gallon buckets. I gave them extremely low amounts of run off, if any... and still it was my best run! I've since built tables 15 inches tall, so I can throw my 100 gallon resi underneath. The Rating: 5
