I'm building a DWC 40 light show. In Flower: 2-10 light rooms and 1-20 light room, 1000W HPS. Industrial Warehouse, All 5 gal buckets w/ 3/4" pipes, CO2 w/ burners, Massive A/C units, the whole bag of chips. No cutting corners. Not my first rodeo. Growing O.G. only.
The DWC system will be built by an associate who has been using the 5 gal system for years w/ immaculate results. Our nutrient system is already dialed. The issue I face is that he's running 90-110 day cycles, and I need to crop much more frequently due to the fact that this is a cooperative medical grow that must support hundreds of patients.
I'm trying to set it up to run perpetually on as close to a 60 day cycle as possible. I'm coming from rock wool, have many years of experience w/ getting 1#/light in rock wool. With that said, I recognize DWC is a similar yet entirely different animal.
My questions:
How to I organize the Veg room so that I can transfer the plants in Veg directly into the flower rooms like I would w/ rock wool? Do I have to Veg teens in 5 gallon buckets under MH lights? Suggested square footage for Veg and # of lights?
Thank you to in advance anyone who is willing to provide some insight.
