@exclusiveX420,
Man that Grease Monkey mom looks beautiful!!! 👏
I have a suggestion for you about the DWC situation. If your water temps exceed 68 degrees your going to have naughty bacteria grow in your solution. I can also cause issues with oxygen uptake in the root system, but I think the threat of naughty bacteria is worse. The solution: Hydroguard. You need to get that stuff yesterday and use it in all DWC or hydroponic grows in general. That will literally eliminate root rot within 24/48 hours and provide a healthy biozone for your root system.
Although Peroxide works, it doesn't hold a candle to Hydroguard. Additionally, if you use any organics (humic acid, fulvic acid, Liquid Karma, Organic nutrients, etc.) the Peroxide will kill all of benificials in those products off as well.
Also, you really want to try keeping your water temps below 70 degrees if you can. I see your using a bucket. Check out my last grow....I was growing in a 5 gallon bucket (which is what I've used in my past grows) and made a water bath in a larger tote. Just the water bath alone will drop the temperature, but you can freeze water bottles and put that in the water bath to bring the temp down. You may not have the room for all that, and I have see dudes put frozen water bottles or even ice (but usually something that isn't going to melt into your solution) directly in their solution. I would hazard against that though because I think having ice directly touching your roots can't be good.
I've definitely got the economy LED right now. It was less than $100 USD, but if you look at my last grow and this grow I think for that price it has more than paid for itself (MAXSISUN PB2000). However, after this grow I've got my eyes set on the ElectricSky ES300. It's literally the perfect dimensions/coverage for my grow room. I'm thinking I may just grow Sour Apple again after this grow. This would allow me to compare yields, and give me a plant that I will have some familiarity growing again instead of not knowing what to expect. I'll also be able to test nutrient levels again so I can dial-in using Jack's.
