i have a grow cab:
https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/40126-armoire-setup.html

one closet that measures 6'wide x 6'tall x 2'deep (picture attached) my plan is to use the grow cab to hold my mothers, and my clones. as for the closet..... i cant figure out how to set it up.

my goals: to harvest at least 2 Oz's every 2 weeks.

my supplies: 400w MH, 400w HPS, cooltube, 265cfm squirrel cage fan, 6" duct booster......Everything needed to grow in a cab, BUT! the whole point is to expand, i plan on using the HID's for the closet, and fluorescents for the mothers and clones. so i just need to figure out how to set up the closet....ebb&flo? leech trays w/ rockwool slabs? whatever we think up, its gotta be hydro.

i need to experts and pros to help me utalize the space in this skinny closet
 
You will need four areas, one every two wks. Each tray will needs it own nutes solution. IE 0-2, 2-4, 4-6, and 6-8(wks).

Will you be using both 400w hps and mh?

yes, im going to be using both 400's MH & HPS in the closet, it will be air cooled, and i really want a 6' light mover to make the most of the space and light, but we will see what the budget allowes.

ive decided to use Drip feed, or ebb & flow because of the low maintinence, im going to be busy enough cutting clones every week and cleaning up after every harvest. i was really hoping i could get away with just 2 nutrient solutions instead of indvidual ones for each 4 sets of plants. do you guys think can fit 20 plants in almost 13 square feet of closet?
 
Lollypop sog. and two solutions should work. I use 6" pots and 6 per tray in a 22" x 6' space and can run 5 trays if needed.
 
so ive been reading, and scratching my head, and checking out grow logs.... all the usual. this is what i came up with!

like i said 80 inches wide X 22 inches deep

the system im going to build is a 3' long fence post (5"x5") with 5 sites (3" netpots) im gonna use an ebb & flo adjustable drain fitting, so i can raise and lower the water level inside depending on root growth. im going to build 4 of them, and set them up with 2 rows of 2.

im going to have two types, a drip/top feed and an aeroponics. im going to use a 200-250 GPH pump with a 1/2" line feeding the 1/4"drip lines

for the aeroponic style, Im trying to figure out best pump to use for 6 360 degree sprayer (like the ones shown below)im gonna use the same 1/2" main line and 1/4" feeder lines, mounted through the top of the post with a grommet so i can pull each mister out and check/clean/repair indvidually.

help me to know what pump to use, i think im good using a low pressure/High Volume one around the 600GPH range?
