LR curing large scale process??

I sell and build nano reef setups. A typical setup only uses 4 or 5 lbs of small pieces, and maybe a half gallon of sand. I’m trying to look into the feasibility of bringing in my own cured (or uncured) rock, cycling it and keeping it long enough to get a good coralline growth on the rock, then use the rock in my setups. I’m looking for known methods that work to cure and “grow out” rocks in relatively small batches thru an assembly line sort of process to process about 40 to 50 lbs week. hopefully in no more than 2 tanks. The sand will (should) be incorporated into the rock tanks to mature as well. Would have to use MH lighting (no outdoor facilities to utilize … yet)
