Just not real good for your globe dude usually when you switch your ballast off you want to give it about 15 mins before restarting the ballast!

HAppy Birthday Gorbzzz hope you had a great weekend! your plants look great!! i forgot to ask you, have you stuck your hand down the sides of the pots under the perlite, to make sure everything is getting sufficiently wet, i'm thinking you may need a slightly wider feed ring in each, this way the roots will try to chase the moisture, as it will be more wet directly under the rings and in front of the nipples. Other than that curiosity check, everything looks great, healthy, clean, and growing :)

I looked again and noticed your feed rings only have 3 nipples, if you can't find bigger rings, maybe poke some holes on the bottom so the roots grow evenly around the pot, this was my first upgrade my very first grow :) Very important also in my opinion

Thanks maaaaate:lol: Had a good weekend with good people! feeling it now though! sore jaw and brain :roll:8)

Yeah I can make the feed rings as big as I want because its just custom cut 4mm tube with T-pieces joining it. I could also add more T's to make more watering points. Ive noticed Ive been getting small amounts of gunk on the bottom of the res..so ive just been giving it a good stir and adding some h202 just to make sure no algae gets started.(destroyed my last grow)

I change the res weekly or even sooner, res temps are sitting around 20c and a PH of 6.0
