Nice set up! I have a very similar set up except I decided to run 2 600wAtters. and also threw in an environmental controller which Im LOVIN! I wonder how much weight you will pull with your 1000W vs. my 2 600's ;].
...high man, i grow in straight coco hempy buckets with either hydroton, grorocks or 3/4inch gravel in the bottom reservoir and SOME runoff is a must, ...it's also just a good idea because it sorta flush's the rootmass with each watering.how do others deal with run-off/flushing their plants while in a tent? where do you setup a drain?
Looking really good mg75, is your OG a decent yielder?

if you are going to run a no run off program, in the future, I suggest you use drip clean@1ml/gal.. you can't really just start using it in the middle of a grow, but should be used from start to flush. a lot of the coco growers here use this to prevent nute lock out from salt accumulation. drsmoke, if you are using both ph up and ph down in the same res, this may be why your ph isn't stable; you really should only use one or the other. add a little bit o of up or down until you are where you want to be. some use a silica product in place of ph up when they have used to much ph down

...anyway, to deal with runoff all you need is a buckethead which btw, i needed someone to explain to me what that was so here is a picture that will be easier than an explanation.
