Hey guys. Sorry it's been a while. It's been a crazy month. Again, sorry about the pic size. We get internet for the house next week so I can actually decrease the img size on my PC. So here we are 3 weeks later still under the cfl since I haven't ordered the light and haven't had time for the nft.

I guess I don't need to to say it but those really need more light and I'm guessing the larger ones are root bound by now. Hopefully you'll be getting your lights and NFT going soon...
Don't give up!

The only problem I have is in the upper left corner..
The whole top of that plant is yellow. Not sure what to do...

Looks, nice. What are the specs on that? Length - width? What's the distance between net cups, on center? Pump, resevior specs?
You should cover the unused holes too...

The overall grow area is 24x27 inches. The tubes are each 4' long and the spacing on the cups is 6.5" on center between the tubes and 6" on center on each tube. The tank has 16 gallons in it with approximately 242-245ml of sensi grow part a and b (per spec at 4ml/liter)

Oh and I'm using a 530? GPH pump from one of those play pools.

At only 6-ish" on center I'd suggest not vegging too long or they will crowd each other out quickly. Be sure to keep an eye on PH and TDS/EC too. The yellowing leaves is usually a nitrogen deficiency but since it's just one, I'm not sure, maybe transplant shock? The pump seems like it should be fine, you might even need to adjust it down if it makes the level too deep in the tubes.
Where those square fence posts easy to work with? I've started considering NFT for a possible SOG grow in the future.
