first time grow setup

[ljiml420]

will be using hydro ebb and flow, one for veg and one for flwr......pretty much a total n00b here......what do i need for light for 24 plants, i know mh for veg and hps for flwr, but what wattage would be ideal for 24 plants? how big of a hydro table would i need for the 24 plants? 3inch or five inch rockwool? much more to come......

Wattage will depend on the size of your grow area, if you have 24 plants in an 2' x 4' space or 24 trees in a 20' x 40' space. You need to do a lot of reading dude, most of the info you need can be found on this site...:thumbsup:

let's say i have about a 5x5x8 grow space and my table height is 2.5ft so i'm thinking that my max plant height would be in the five feet range(probably just under that), what wattage would be optimum in that instance for both hps and mh
