I am going to be using a 150 watt HPS. I want to grow 2 plants at a time. I am thinking about two different systems.


System 1 - http://www.ebay.com/itm/29102849518...eName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
System 2 - http://htgsupply.com/Product-Bubble-Boy-Single-Shot-DWC

I am think about buying 2 of systems 2 because then each plant will have 5 gallon reservoir.

Will system 1 support 2 plants with only a 5 gallon reservoir?

Please let me know what you guys think and would do.

I would make my own with 5 gallon igloo water coolers. They help keep your water a lot cooler. But I would pick the bucket model.

i'll definitely go with single res as 150w cannot grow plants to overgrow 5gals, if they do then you have to add light, and it is easier to control a single res. for heat issues, single 5 gal or 2x5 gal is the same since they are separated so will loose heat at the same rate...
