I went with the drip system manily because of my better understanding of what im doing (i do sprinkler systems for side jobs). Never read a lot on the DWC except a year ago or so when i started reading. Tho the most attractive setup to me is some sort of aeroponics.

next week im going to go buy all my rubbermaid containers. One for the nutes, one for run off, and a larger one that will house the net pots and plants.

I may buy to small floor cabinets and have a grow chamber and a clone chamber, but i would like to have the larger grow area for veg/flower and below that have cloning area.

these are the cabinets i was looking at.

also I was wondering if a 400w hps (and a MH conversion bulb for veg?) is too much for this area. Eventualy I plan on many short plants. I was thinking about trying a scrog on second grow, but I think i would have to do fewer plants to accomplish this is that size of an area.

Well i have to run back to work. Will be back on after.
Thanks so much for your input. Glad to be getting a little attention.
