This all looks really good to me. I'm a pretty big noob too, just have a soil grow going, and its coming along great. I have a hydro setup in my closet, i just can't use it until i come back from my month long christmas break. If I had to give you any advice at all, it would have to be don't worry so much about little things. I pretty much look at my grow once every few days, just to make sure the light is where it needs to be and stuff. From what i can see, they still do great if you sit back and let them do their work. If you have any wisdom to share with me about the system you have going, it would be great to have when i start my hydro-grow in January.
