If you decide on the drip, and run the 1/2" hose around and branch off with the 1/4" lines to each pot, you may not need a 500 gph pump. Depending on how many feeders you are running. I have 15 girls in the tray, and I have lots of pressure, you may be able to get away with a lesser pump even if you have 15..... lesser pump for sure if you have less. At the end of the 1/2" line, I have a valve that I can open to release some of the pressure on the system if I need it. If you only have six 1/4" feeders, you can prolly get away with 250 gph pump.

either just use it as an ebb and flow or i was thinking abouthooking up the 500 gph pump to the 1/2 inch tubing around and then running 1/4'' tubing to each one of the plants and just having them running straight up no drip or anything..

with both systems i will be needing to put 30gal rez's under each table.. ebb and flow will need the whole 30 but im hoping if i do the drip one it wil use much less.. tell me what ya think
