Finally got through this thread and I must say, You have skills and I learned some things along the way.
You encouraged me to do a small Flood and drain instead of DWC for my first venture into Hydro. May I ask where you got the flood trays? I only plan on starting small like a 2x2, like yours, to get my feet wet.
Thanks for the kind words! Lowes/Home Depot carry them. They come in 2 different sizes. The ones I used are the smaller ones ($5.98 ea.) and I believe they are 7 gal according to the sticker on my tubs (but claim 10 gal in the ad). They are sold as PVC plastic "mixing trays". Flexible but VERY rugged & priced right compared to hydroshop tray prices.

These are going to be the first to get the axe. They are smelling more like Hawaiian Punch than citrus, but Im not complaining. Very dense buds with strong sweet mouth watering smells. Very uniform plants with almost no variation between them. Grew very easy and took whatever I threw at them nutrient wise. I'f they smoke like they smell & grow, I'd get another pack without question.

Do the Bag o' oranges have an actual orange smell or more of a citrus nose? Looks dank.
Theres 2 different phenos Ive discovered in the few FEM beans I ran. There is the "Black Pheno" pictured above, and there is the "Green Pheno" not pictured yet. The Black pheno as beautiful as she is is the less pungent of the 2 phenos. Theres some citrus there but nowhere near how it is with the green pheno. Though the green pheno isnt as pretty or frosty, if you disturb the trichs on the green it is a greasy explosion of orange rind. Terp hunters like myself will likely enjoy the green pheno.

"California Orange" (FEM)
Getting the chop today. Has a minty smell? :spew:
Not sure what thats about, but it smells just like the "Bubblegummer" from Female Seeds that I ran. I puke in my mouth a little just thinking about it. Obviously not even slightly impressed with this one lol.

4 of 7 germinated and I have 2 of those 4 showing some mutations.
It looks like 1 will outgrow any issues, but the other -not so much. Looks a lot like the crinkle leaf mutants I got in my FPOG fems (which they never outgrew) and ended up getting tossed in late flower.

Heres the 2 healthy ones:
