Perpetual vegitation SWC/DWC/E&F

Curious if anyone here does/uses a perpetual vegitation in hydro?

I was thinking (oh-oh) about converting one of my flowering stages into a perpetual veg table and add another tray for blooming..

Thinking the ppm should be near 1200 ppm (about where I keep my mothers)

I clone in a couple aero's currently and eventually the cloners get crowded and things start to "bottleneck" in that area of my system..

Thoughts or suggestions would be great.. I love brainstorming this kinda thing with like-minded folk..

And I hope everyone is having a grand day.. Today is my 41st BDay, so I am going to treat myself and my garden to a little splurging..
 
...IMO...I would consider the light intensity to determine your ppm. If your growing under cfl's, I would lower the ppm to maybe 800-900 ppm @ .7 conversion. (500-600 @ .5 conversion)
...if under HID's, your good at 1200 - 1300 ppm @ .7 conversion. ( 900 - 1000 @ .5 conversion)


EDIT: HAPPY B-DAY!

Thanks Trich!!

On my soon to be veg table (or the plan i'm talking about) would be a 2'x4' tray with a big boy HOT5 (8x4) which fits squarely over the tray.. Love my T5's for vegging.. I shoulkd be able to veg all 18 plants on that table to approximately 1' in height...

I would then transfer to the bloom station which at the moment is 1 1000W HPS with a 3' light mover-rail that I will replace with two 600W HPS
