Ok guys i have been scanning the forums for sometime now and haven't really found nething to help me out so now i need to pick some brains Ok my flowering room is 10ft L x 9.5ft W x8ft T. I have 2 grate white 6in A/C hoods on a Light Rail 5 with 2 1000w Xtra sun switchable ballast on 240v. so i have very good light coverage. Now i am planning on flowering 20 plants, but this is the tricky part I am shooting to be perpetual so I want to harvest 2 plants each week and pull a min of 3o's a plant for a total of 6 a week. The yield part isn't really my question I know I can do that easily. My question is about the hydro system its self I was wanting to run a RDWC with 2 separate systems with 10 5gal buckets each, but if i am running perpetual how am i going to work my nutes out ? im kinda high here so bare with me lol but i mean i am going to have plants at all diff stages and i know for at least the last week i want to flush, so i just dont really see how i can make a RDWC system work in a perpetual garden...... any ideas any one??????

well in my opinion since you want a harvest a week that would be close to the same thread havest a pound every 2 weeks. you will need to have a space for the plant at each week and be able to move it thru the cycle. rdwc may not be the best method for you since you will need different ppms thru the cycle. personally i do a harvest every 3 weeks i would stagger your plants and try it out. if you still want to do rdwc you may need 4 stations instead of 2

I had the same problem so I switched my resivoirs to five gallon bucket for each 2 plants that way I can run different nutrient schedule and flushing. I use an ebb n grow (flood and drain buckets).
