Nice, go with 5 trays 20sq.ft. w/ 1kw=50watts per foot
--1kw will give you some serious yields.....do you have the height for it???? If so use that shit....you said a basement grow right, just making sure

I'm thinking of using a single reservoir tank to flood each table one at a time. That's three pumps down in one reservoir tank.What are the negatives/positives under this scenario?

you may need to change the res alot more often, I believe 4-5 L nute solution per plant is what you want......i run 96 plants on 265L res and have to change every 10 days

I'm not planning a staggered growth cycle. It will be: Fill-Grow-Harvest-Clean & Repeat.

Those little tubs are primo for a perpetual harvest....ought to rethink that plan

I do desire a couple different strains, which may require different harvest dates. Would it screw me up too bad when it's time to flush?
|
I manually flush if I have 10-20 even 25+ plants coming ready before the rest (i am manually flush about 20 right now).....its a pain but something you have to do till your quiver of strains is dialed in......
Some food for thought......are those trays uv proof?....if not they won't hold up long under HID light which contains enough uva, uvb to degrade plastics in the growroom.
just my 2cents
