Ok, heres the dealeo.

Im 17, almost 18, currently too lazy to get a job, and love plants of all type. I have some Lions Tail plants growing in a homemade bubbler cloner made from a laundry tub, so building anything is not a problem for me.

My mom likes the idea of growing some weed, she has given me an area in the basement to grow in which I have just finished putting up a wall to section it off. The room is 8 feet by 7 feet by 7 feet tall (392 Cu Ft), and I have access to 3 15 AMP circuits, one circuit is hardwired into the wall, one is an extension cord from the laundry room right behind the wall, and I have a second extension cord coming from the furnace room. Both extension cords are heavy duty rated for +15 amps.

This will be a Drip Style Hydro system.

Parts List:
First purchase:
- 10 Laundry Tubs: 1 for Cloning, 3 for veg, 6 for Flowering. They will be placed along the perimeter of the room, with enough room in the middle to walk around.
- 2 Plastic tubs for resevoirs
- 1 465 CFM blower for exhaust
- 1 420 CFM Can Filter
- 2 Metal Halide 400 W light kit /w White Batwing 16" X 24" and 400 Watt Sunmaster Warm Deluxe bulb * veg *
- 81 5" net pots: 9 pots per Tub for veg / flower
- 36 2" net pots: For Cloning. * they will all fit in the laundry tub *
- 2 Mag Drive 500 GPH pumps. * 1 for cloner and 1 for veg stage drippers *
- mist sprayers for Cloner
- Drip Irrigation manifolds to feed the plants


Second Purchase: * 1 - 2 weeks after first purchase *
- 3 Hortilux 400 watt HPS lights and ballasts w/ White batwing 16" x 24"
- 1 1/2 hp pump * good cheap one on ebay right now for flowering stage watering *
More things that I can't really think of at the moment.

The laundry tubs will be seperated by growing stage:
The Veg stage tubs will be connected via the drain, and fed to a resevoir, where the nutes will be pumped back up and to the plants via feed lines.
Same will apply for the flowering stage.
There will be a drain valve on each resevoir for drainage.

I will post more in a bit, must go get some munchies, and charge my cam batts.

What are your thoughts on my grow setup? Constructive criticism please
What are the recomended companies to buy nutes from? GH or Advanced Nutes?
Will be expensive, but the cost really isn't too much of an issue.
