My system is a cross between a DWC and Aeroponics unit. I am about a month into my grow from seed, but I am noticing that others that are growing in a similar fashion have taller plants, what could be causing this or is this normal?

Your lighting. A mere 150W won't produce growth anywhere near as fast as the people using 400W's,600W's, and 1000W's.

Other than that they look healthy, great work.

yeah 150w could be very close to the top of the plant, if you want taller plants then give it more vegg period

if you want them to stretch a bit, then yes leave the light there...but personally i hate the stretching. i would rather have nice tight compact growth anyday over thin and lanky.

HEY. Set up looks great. Excited to see your progress! I agree that lamp could be lowered significantly..
Just make sure to have a fan in there to help keep the air circling and it will strengthen your plant :)

Thanks Jack Harer for the pic
