Would it be possible to do a complete grow in that system? Seems like that many plants in that small of an area would get crowded. Looks like a really nice compact system though. i am planning a grow in a homebox xs right now and that would fit perfect in that size box.

thats what i am wondering if crowding is an issue its supposed to get more light to the plants because of how its slanted though...and if you think about it if it was stretched out and not slanted like it is...it would be a lil bigger but i dunno... and also there is nothing wrong with buying a complete system.if u have the money then why not?some people just arent handymen.$100 plus free shipping and coco coir/hydroton dont sound like a bad deal.

If you can spend the money, that system could allow you to grow seedlings or clones, and you are right with everything included to start learning with and the price of gas...... By then you would have time to review more information about getting something a little wider and longer for flowering, and it would get you started. I bought my first table, a drip system, with all the stuff for a 20 station setup for It was either $200 or $250 can't realy remember know. And then I used the information I learned from that to improve.
In my opinion the most 2 most important parts of a drip system are the pump (duh) and the drippers themselves. I have RO (reverse Osmosis) water and the drippers still clog. Soaking them in plain white vinegar on a weekly basis will help. There are a couple of configurations of drippers that I think would be relative problem free for a small area like this one. The pump is only 66 gph, so its efficiency is going to depend on the diameter of the main line. If they have one line that runs the length with all of the drippers branching from it, you might have a chance with that pump. As a comparison, the one my 20 station finishing size table used was a 396 gph pump. You can always buy a bigger pump if needed, a 400 gallon might run $25.00, last about a year, you will want a better one by then anyway.
If folks aren't familiar with the exact product you are asking about they might not feel comfortable giving you an answer?? VV

The system looks great but the customer service is NON EXISTENT! It took 6 weeks to get here, during that time my request for contact was ignored. I was very specific when I placed my order but I did not get the system I ordered! I have tried to contact them by e-mail AND phone. Four requests for contact over the past two weeks and still not a peep!

Drippers are good for vegging, but you'll need something bigger to see them to the end. Victor had some good advise for you.
