DWC Stadium Grow - Any suggestions?

Specs: 5'x8'x8' Growing Area

Lights:
2 x Lumitek Dual 600w 240v Digital Ballasts
4 x Hortilux Super HPS EN Bulbs (Hoodless / Non Cooltube)
1 x Dual Outlet Digital Timer

Ventalation:
1x 6" Activated Carbon Filter / 6" GrowBright 424cfm Inline Fan
1 x Can-Fan 6" 440 c.f.m.Blower
4 x Pedestal Fans (vertical coolers)
2 x Oscilating Fans

Hydro:
20 DWC Buckets (as laid out by hererisssh)
http://www.thcfarmer.com/forums/f95/...c-bucket-2551/



I plan on making 20 independant DWC Buckets as specified by
hererisssh. I know it will be a lot of work, but I plan
on running cuttings from the same mother I butchered, and
running different nute programs on all the buckets to develop
an ideal DWC nutriant program for this strain.


- Do you think 4 - 600 W lights will provide enough light for the canopy? 20 plants - stadium style - in an 5'x8' room. Top row will be raised 2' off the ground - second row 1' off - a and a couple will be located on the floor.

- I plan on training the plants to fill in empty 1x1 spaces (white) -
I am pretty sure I will have a solid canopy over the entire room.

- What do you guys think of this setup?

- More efficiant than having 4-5 plants grouped around a single light?

- Any comments would be appreciated.

No comments on the probabilities of success / failure? Any changes?

I like the idea. Your lighting should be more than adequate. I will also be running a stadium style setup, but plan on using aeroponics with 2 x1000 watt hps on movers for flowering. I'm just finishing my grow room. Check it out if you get a chance. Here is the link

Full on construction project man! That's dope. How many plants are you going to fit in there / what is your room dimensions?

How's things goin'? I've made some major developments, but not done yet. This I can't lie, this IS a lot of work. Come check it out if you get a chance...
PEACE

There really doesn't seem to be much help on this topic....?
