Default Indoor Hydroponic setup

So needed a project this spring, decided to build an NFT grow box. Pic has 200 oasis cubes, if all goes well will transplant in about a week-10 days. 4x8 area should be full as plant out approaches end of May.

Cubes have a heat mat under them
Lights are 260w leds. Will add a third shortly
Reflective panels yet to be installed on upper frame
Fan yet to be installed
Using oasis horticubes for start media.
Currently pump runs 15 min every 3 hours.
Channels are farmtek 6"x 8'
50 gal reservoir

I went with this setup because i think it will be the most versatile. I can use it for germinating, growing out seedlings, and i can grow greens/herbs in winter.
