I've been reading some info on hydroponics, and I was wondering what type of lights would be needed for a small indoor tomato garden. I would be using 5 gallon grow bags with perlite as the growing medium, and a drip system for nutrient delivery. I'd like to be able to produce 1 to 2 pounds of tomatoes daily, year round. Would I need the 1000 watt lamps or would 400 watt lamps be sufficient? I would probably mount them on a linear motion rack overhead. Any idea of how many plants I would need? Best varieties?
Thanks in advance for any help!
