hello everyone. thanks for advice and for dropping in. I hope fellow first timers have learned a bit from this and i hope more seniors drop in for wisdom

i have upgraded to 20l (5gallon) airpots. looks like a pretty cool invention, so worth the minimal $$ investment if they work the way they are supposed to.
i have moved up to 24/0. 12 of those are on natural sunlight, 12 are with a 250W flowering CFL.
i have bought the mylar type material and covered the area, looks like this is helping quite a bit. more bang for my 250W buck.
i bought ph down and a ph tester and have no started monitoring the ph levels a little bit. it's a soil grow, so i'm not OCD about what goes in and comes out, just trying to keep it at 6 going in.
