    Hi I was wondering if anyone had any advice for me....

    I have done a few harvests in the past year and want to try my hand at year around green house growing. I was told that as long as you can veg indoors you can place the plants outdoors in a green house as long as the temp is okay.

    I was thinking of using a simple ebb and flow system because I want to start flowering when they are a foot tall. I have never used an ebb and flow system and had terrible results with an aeroponic system I picked up years ago. (super temperamental and leaked everywhere!!)

    I wanted to do know if anyone has any stupid proof directions for building a ebb and flow system because I am super nervous due to my past experience with the aeroponics. The ebb and flow must be able to fit 20 + plants and the green house is a 6 x 10 or any advice on green house growing would be super appreciated!!

    Depends on whether you want a manual system or automatic.


    I do a 8 x 5 row in which my drums will flood with five gallons of water. I have 8 drums and have grown 32 plants total four to each drum they are large. Mine is the manual system and I dump five gallons of water into each drum twice a day. Cheap but effective. Last grow under one light produced 1 and 1/4 pounds clean bud.


    Over this I run a light rail with two side by side 1000w lights.
