Newb to Hydropnics, continual harvest, Pics

It's great to finaly start one of these. My situation right now is I've got 2 4.5ft.
unknown sativas and 3 clones that now have 8-10 inch roots. The adults are in soil and have just started flowering. The pots are way to small but I'm not going to be dicking around with a transplant right now. I have a small bug problem, little black things smaller then a period. The clones were first put in plastic cups covered in duct tape to light proof, then once they started showing roots I moved them into my ebb and flow area (the future flowering area) where they were until I got the vegging area together with a tetra 100 air pump. I'm using flora nutes and I used the cheapest cloning powder I could find. I'm using hydroton only as I'm terrified of pH problems. The adults are under a 400w MH but I can put hps in if I had a bulb. I'm hoping for harvest around thanksgiving. I live in seattle. wa if you want to know about the climate. I know I left some stuff out so if there are any pictures or info you want just ask.

any input is helpful

I was having trouble getting the bubbles under every plant but I worked it out today. I didn't anticipate there being so many valves and tubing issues. Everything is ok though now. I'm a little concerned that the big girls haven't started flowering yet.
when my power went out about a mont ago they started showing a little more pre-flowers, nothing though yet, I hope that everything is light proof.

good to hear, set up wise the ebb and flow was really easy, especially considering the awkward shape of my grow-shed.

It's so lame compared to yours though.

pictures coming soon

Heres some more pics, it's a couples days later from the first pics, everything seems to be growing at the rate that I expected. The adults are growing slow because they need a transplant really bad I think. As you can see I use flora nutes, and Rootone rooting hormone. My clones take about 1-2 weeks to root (a really long time.) One method that I use to increase my yield is cutting off the top of the plant. this creates two shoot insead of one (which is especially important if your growing sativa. It's actually a strange way that I got these seeds, my friends friend used to grow, he had about 200 seeds, gave them all to my friend, he gave me 15 for free. The reason I think it's strange is all the seeds make girls, their feminised. I figure that someone bought some feminised seeds from a seed bank, made one into a male (I here theres spray) and made some feminised seeds which are what I have.
