Almost same set-up dude...but I only use HID for twelve hours...and only on watering day which is payday....I go from grow cups to 2 liter pop jugs "w/drainholes" to one gallon buckets "hopefully"...Tried five gallon f**k dat..Get a temp gauge and watch the heat cuz when I use mine they cookin' at about 120* F...They should be like 80-85.
