    how would i go about doing water changes with this setup

    i think i kind of just repeated my first question after reading it again lol, ok so correct me if im wrong, all the res is for is to be able to mix all nutrients and then release valve so it fills all 16 buckets at the same time, and the brain/controller is just something to monitor the water...

    how would i go about doing water changes with this setup

    light distance from bulb (newbie question)

    hi, i understand the heat and ventilation idea as thats not a problem but what im getting at is if i label each side so there is 4 sides to a cage so A B C D and each side is equal distance from cage to bulb which is 18" so if we start from side A and in flower stage the buds start getting...
