i been looking around (prob just missed it) so i got a tent i can clone and veg in. kinda just thinking about cloning than vegging a week (or less) then doing like 3-4 tubs with like 8-10
clones (same clones from moms in same tubs) i dont have the most room but would this stuff all work for my fllower tent? also if this is not the best idea id love help, i really wanna do sog as i dont have the most room and heard aero is harder.

would this set up work?

Ya man, all that stuff will work. The only concern id have is running a 1000 watt light in a 4x2 tent. Thats a lot of light. Youd be ok with a 600 w. If you use big 27gal totes you wont have to do rez changes as often as you think for the first monthish. I did a sog tote like that and did one rez change in 8 weeks. They were fine. Saved lots of money on nutes too. Also make sure you get an air cooled hood or tube because heat is your enemy growing especially with hydro.

I had six sites per tote, but i probably could have done eight or even ten...maybe. I veged for 18 days before i flipped and got pretty much one big stem up with maybe four little babies at the bottom. My franken pheno shishkaberry stretched to almost three feet tall after only 18 weeks of veg. Trainwreck only made just under 2.5 feet. Each one gave me about an oz.
