1st Grow KIND K5 LED cabinet grow

I've spent the last few years lurking in the shadows. I finally said f*** it and started to design an indoor cabinet to build with my husband. Needless to say, things took off quickly and one cabinet rapidly turned into three and some mistakes were made since this is our first grow.

We started out with some Crown OG, Liquid Butter and White Nightmare seeds. 8 seedlings were tested for genetics and we got 5 girls, 3 males. I kept one of each strain to allow us to take cuttings.

So here are some details on my setup(s)...
Cab1 : Aeroponic with top feed (drip)
1- 2' X 4' T5
1- 6" Hyperfan
2- 396gph pumps
1- My CO2 grow box
1 air pump
2 fans

Cab2 : RDWC with top feed (drip)
40 gallon panda res
Kind K5 750XL
1- 700gph water pump
1- 6" CanMax fan
2- fans
Exhale Homegrown CO2 bag
1 air pump

Cab3 : Mother Cabinet bubbleponics
50 gallon Rubbermaid tote aerated
1- 2' x 4' T5
1- 6" CanMax Fan

I'm using Mills Nutes, with regular silica instead of that expensive ass Vitalize.

We flowered 3 plants, 2 liquid butters and 1 crown. I ran into some nutrient lockout and pH problems along the way. I also made the rookie mistake of starting my plants bloom nutrients as soon as I switched to 12/12, instead of waiting for them to show signs of sex. So I had to flush for about 4 days or so. Not to mention these babies wouldn't stop growing and I unfortunately needed to chop some tips off. Anywho, here are some pics of the setup, my flowers (2-3 weeks left)' and some of the clones I plan on journaling.

Any advice, comments, etc are very much welcome. Let's try to keep the shit talking to a minimum.
