Everything looks good other than the watering cycle, even though rockwool retains water so well I would water more often. My ebb and flow table waters 6 times a day for 3 minute periods and they are flourishing. I would say water three times a day minimum, that way your plants get breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

It's hard to overwater with a hydroponic system, and you will see direct results if you do, the leaves of the plant will start to drip

With soil you only want to water once a day or once every other day, but try watering multiple times and see how it works out for the plants

It really just depends on your system and whatever you have, the best advice I can give you is to experiment with different methods to find the best one

Looking very nice man, did you plant all of your plants at the same time or skip days in between?
