Am i doing ok?

This is my first grow at 5 weeks. Need some opinions. Top 44 plants. I plan on veggin for another week or two but i guess dependin on opinions that may change. Check out my Album and let me hear your opinions.

Lots more info would be good. Have you topped them? does not look like it. What do you have for lights, nutes. What is your ppm, ph, temp? It all depends on how big you want your plants when they finish. By looking at them I think you should top them and get them to branch out more. Are you going to use bigger containers by the time they are in flower?

yeah, please give us lots more info about your setup. the plants look fine. however, imo, your lights are way too high above the plants. of course, without knowing what type of lights, saying more is a risk of seeming like I don't know what I'm talking about...
most ppl will tell you foil is a no no, but I say, if you're using cfls or flouros, then it's fine. they don't get hot enough to cause 'hot spots'.
other than that...need more info.

Umm i just got back from the store and i put a total of 166W of cfl lights in their and now it looks like a football stadium in my closet. Haha so total i have both Aerogarden pro 200 lights plus the 166w of cfls. Is that enough lights? And i set them up so that the lights are much closer then they were.

When using cfl's the higher watt bulb you use the better. The larger the bulb the longer the usable light will travel. The soft white 42 watt are much better than the 23 watt daylight, even for veg. Just make sure you have enough air on them (small fan) to keep your plants cool enough. One of those indoor/outdoor thermometers with the separate probes that can be put up on top of the plants are good. That way you can know the temp there since that will be your warmest place. Do you have them in reflectors? If not you should or you will be losing a lot of good light.

What does the aerogarden have for lights? Are they tube florescent?
