Inputs on my simple setup please! Pics!!!

Here is my future CFL Bubbleponic setup. It is an 18 gallon res. that I am going to fill will around 15 gallons of distilled water for my babes. There are 3 air stones in the res. The water pump feeds each net pot with water through drippers. The medium I am using is net pots, hydroton, and rockwool. I am going to grow the plants as short and bushy as I can using the SoG method. Please let me know what you think and any suggestions or advice you have. Constructive criticism is appreciated!

Any feedback will be loved! Haha. I did a decent amount of research before I went out and bought anything. All of you guys are very well educated and informed on this Let's see if I did my research.

Here is what is pictured from left to right of the picture (probably not in exact order) :

-BrightWing Reflector
-250 watt huge CFL 6500k (will used same CFL for FLOWERING, of course 2700k though)
-Small 6 inch clamp fan for inside grow tent
-One 8 1/2 inch clamp reflector (I actually have two, one not pictured)
-APC Power Surge (pretty big, with power backup) Cool haha. (Used it for my old CPU)
-Heavy duty timer (Hydrofarm)
-Tomato netting for SOG
-Little but effective germing station
-GH Flora 3 part formula
-pH UP/DOWN with syringe and test cup
-Milwaukee pH600 pH tester
-TDS/Temp meter (don't know brand but works good)
-Extra tubing to exact water from res. from water pump when flushing
-3 net pot covers
-not pictured... another small clamp and light.


I am waiting on purchasing a growing tent (GrowLab) and carbon scrubber/inline fan. I'm not sure on the exact size I want to get yet.





OH!!!


After a few days of research, I'm pretty sure I'm going with Northern Lights guys! Fuck I can't even imagine homegrown NL. Phew



Please, inputs

Thanks guys, this ones for you.

I'm not a hydro guy, so I don't have any informed opinion about that. The rest of your list looks good. What kind of questions do you have exactly? Its easier to answer specific questions than it is the general, "How's this stuff look"?
 
I started my grow in the same thing,my plants out grew it the roots all grew togeather an got tippy,so I switched to 5 gal. buckets and I like that set up better than the tote,my next set up will have all the buckets linked togeather with a res tank(18 GAL TOTE)and a pump to circulate the nute solution a few times a day.good luck on the tote set up peace and grow on
