yes mate 2-3 dry is correct...............ok yes you can grow in that space with cfl but i doudt you will pull 2 dry per plant,,,,,,,however i think you should now go prove me wrong........thers a guy called stonesour who uses loads of cfls in a small cab 12-12, he may be able to give you more idea........not sure about the wick thing, def used for plants when you go away but not sure if is any good all time....guess its like drip feed. i reckon you will get 4-6 total...............this is based on the theory that i know nothing
Cheers del, il probably put wicks in incase i go away at all but hand water them to make sure im in control. Well i probably wont prove you wrong on the weight but il give it a damn good try..lol. Thanks for putting me onto stonesour, ive been reading through his work and its very good stuff. Im thinking of going with the two seedlings ive got then im taking cuttings and adding two of those to the seedlings for a week before putting it all on to flower. Then i will know for next time round if i can fit 6 clones in.
Anyway cheers again Del..

Im not del but here ya go, yes drip feed from garden centre will do the job, hook it up to a res and run to waste. For coco you want hydro nutes or coco nutes anything alse and ya gonna run into problems.

Best check ionic website and see, I use AN sensi grow/bloom as well as hesi and whilst hesi is coco specific, AN is suitable for all types of hydro including coco. See what ionic say about use in coco, in theory should be fine as coco is hydro anyway so cant see a problem. Only need the one drip line really, how longs your drip cycle? you feeding both soil and coco on drip lines?

i reckon im best with pots gona chuck that NFT in the pic up in the loft. yeah think i will feed both on drip unless u think othawise.
generally i feed soil pots from the bottom n let them soak up as much as they want. works with the house plants n salads.

Its whatever works for you, i like pots and NFT but im working more with pots now im in a grow cab. Dont know much about soil grows only that it wont want feeding as often as the coco will so have to think how your gonna run the drip lines to both, seperate pumps on different timers or seperate res?
