Thought I would share this neat little setup.

The build was purposely built for the op, about 2500 ft/sq.
It uses passive intakes and 9 x 12" extractions
It has Veg and Flowering rooms.
The feeding system consists of free flow drippers on a high pressure irrigation system using TOPSPIN drippers, being fed from 5 x 1000 litre tanks.
For plants support pea nets are stretched across the whole room, plants finish in 11 litre pots, medium used is mostly a mix of BioBizz Allmix with a few additives.
Nutrients used are Canna 1 part Terra base, H&G roots excel and Atami Bloombastic.
384 plants make it to the flowering room, making for 6 plants per light.

Thanks for the comments all, the irrigation system uses 1 inch high pressure pipe attached to 250 litre per minute pumps, each pump runs 16 (topspin drippers) these are what you see in the picture, each dripper unit has 12 1 metre drip lines coming from it the drippers use unregulated high flow steaks, each plant has 2 steaks,

PUMP > ANTI SYPHON VALVE > FILTER > 1 WAY VALVE (to keep system primed) > 16 topspin units (aka 192 drippers) on a ring circuit.

Each light has a topspin unit dedicated to it , so 12 drippers per light, 6 plants per light= 2 drippers per plant

there is 4 of these systems (described above) in total, in the flowering chamber, each system has 1000 litre tanks

Just ask if you want me to elaborate or need more info
