Help me design my new grow

Hello, I have been away for awhile now due to moving and lazyness with getting started back up. I have framed off an area that is about 5x10 in my basement. I am pretty set on scrogging so I have sketched out a rough idea of the idea I am going for. Want to keep it at about 8 plants and no more than 2000-2400 watts. I am going to use co2 so and I live in a cold climate so I am not worried about heat much. Attached is a rough idea of what I am thinking. I cant decide if I want to build a RDWC like Blazeoneup's or just some soil coco mix. :tiphat:

I would go with Hempy buckets with coco, but that's just me.

Just finished a run with 2 gallon Hempy buckets in a 5 X 9 room/2000 watts. 17 pants, vertical bulbs in center, plants on the walls. Pulled 8 zips per plant after 2 month veg on a high yielding strain, Critical Jack. Highest yielding strain I have seen.
Oh yeah, K.I.S.S. method. Maxibloom all the way.
Hempy's are simple and foolproof. For maximum yield, water to run off every day,as it's a hydro medium. Can water every 3 days in bigger pots, but won't yield as much.

Thanks for your response. Did you vertical scrog the plants? otherwise, if you only had the lights in the center, wouldn't one side of the plant get more light than the other?
