Looking good. Here are a few tips:
  • You might benefit from wrapping or painting the white buckets to black. This will help prevent light from getting to he roots.
  • The foil isn't really needed on the tubes
  • Very important - you need to have your air pump above the water line. If you turn your pump off as-is, you stand the chance of siphoning water back into your pump. This will not only ruin your pump, but you'd end up with some flooding as well.
  • Use a white sheet on the floor, instead of black. This might help keep the heat down, if it becomes a problem. This would only help while the plants aren't big enough to cast a shadow on the floor
  • It doesn't look like you have a drain on your buckets. You might want to invest in a shop vac, if you don't have one so you can suck all the water up and drain it somewhere else.

Good luck :)

Looking good, I notice you have some ph Up, is the tap water ph too low where you live, because you can always just add more tap water, just curious mate...

Looking great! The growth rate of DWC is so phenomenal that it's difficult to go back to growing any other way.
