Here is one of the new setups...Under current 12XXXL customised to run on 40" centers and veticle lighting...

Started with a standard Under Current 12XXL and then recut the 2" tubes between the buckets, bologna cut the ends at 36" point to point for 40" centers, remade the end manifold also to hit the 40" footprint.

I was wondering more along the lines of what you're pulling for weight out each one? Bare bulb or cool tube?

OK last time on the kiddie pools, this is posted about 10 times here and there..

Walmart kiddie pools
5 gallon homer buckets with holes in the bottom(4 buckets per pool)
7-10 gallon shallow long reservoir from Home depot
365gph pump
1/2" riser neck
4 way maverick water octopus thing with 4 lines, one for each bucket
Timer
4 sinder blocks
thin wood frame for support of the pools (2x2 and plywood)

The buckets are filled with hydroton to the top, plants are vegged in the buckets after coming out of the cloner, no specific time at all, we put the tomato cages on them the day we move to flower, 24/7 feed for 15 minutes at a time, 1k in a vertizontal hood over each pool, 50-55 days to flush, 60-65 day to finish. The table is pitched to a single drain hole that drops the runoff back into the reservoir under the table.
