I am not familiar with the UC, but very experienced with E&F tables. In my experience, you want to KISS on a large operation, and 5-6 lights is not a small op. You said you want something quick and easy to break down. A table can be set up in 20 minutes, 30-40 if you want to build a real nice stand for it.
The UC is very simple to break down. May look complicated but actually not.
The UC sounds like it could be problematic if a pump failed, while E&F tables are bulletproof and even a 3 day pump failure, wont cost you a crop.
UC.s are not problematic. Not trying to insult but why make such a comment if you have never dealt with this product? E&F are not bulletproof. All be it E&F is a good technique, flooding is always a concern. The UC's must have complete power outage for you to have mass failure.
Growing monsters in the UC is cake but growing monsters in E&F, you have to be dialed in and have some experience. Believe me, my first run at E&F was dismal.I also dont see why you cant grow bigger plants in the table. I have SOGGED and run big plants in a table.
As far as plant #'s, dont get caught up in it. You never know whats going to happen. I have personally seen ther DEA involved in multiple location busts with one place having 1000+ plants and charges stay state.
Totally agree...
