my revamped grow thread-mystery seeds first grow hydro

a few months ago i started a thread here, but when the website was hacked i lost it, so im gonna try and restart my thread. this is my first time ever growing anything. feel free to comment. i accept positive criticism. anything helps.

heres a video of my hydro setup i built after i started learning more. for my hydro setup i decided to go with aeroponics. i use general hydroponics floraduo parts A and B in a strong grow blend, keeping my PH at 5.8-6.2 and my temperature for the res between 60 and 68F. i change out my res every 2 to 3 weeks. i use 2 liter coke bottles filled with water to keep my temps low.


and heres my plants as they started to grow in my hydro setup, before i had to transplant them outside. in soil.
