First CFL closet grow.

This is my first grow. I started it on 19 Dec 2011. Originally I started it as a top feed system, but have since made it a hybrid top feed/DWC. I germinated 4 seeds my roommate found in a bag of midi's. I do not know what strain. After a week of germination 1 seed had a tap root 5 times the length of the others so I opted to plant that one. My grow has had 2 bad events as you can see in the pics. The first one my water pumped failed and I didn't notice until I woke up to the horror scene. The second one, While I was at work my grow box got up to 91 degrees. She has pulled through strong in both cases. I do not know if she is female yet though, But I might as well think positive. Lol. I have not put her into flower yet because I am moving next month. Probably not the best idea to move it around with all that stinky goodness:-P. I'm running the lights 24/7. And the pictures are not all in order of time taken, They get out of order in the transfer and just to much of a PITA to correct. Let me know what you guys think, Any advise will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the comments guys. Next month when I get the new apartment I am going to build a DIY Under Current system with 4 sites, Then convert this grow box for the mother plant. I've been using the GenHydro Flora series, Along with the Diamond Nectar, FloraShield and mixing in 30ML/GL 3% Hydrogen Peroxide. Once I start to flower I will use my Liquid Kool Bloom.

As of 24 Mar 2012 I am sad to say that my first attempt failed. I am unsure of the cause, But after my move the plant immediately went into shock and was unable to recover. However with bad news comes good. I have already started on my second attempt. I have 2 little seedlings under 24hr lighting. They cracked and had a good 1/3rd" taproot started just 24hrs after I started to germinate them. once they start coming up I will be trying to get daily updates here for you guys to see how they are doing.

Very sorry to here she didnt make it, i would be devastated. hopefully the new seedlings will go better. Oh by the way superthrive does wonders to calm stressed and shocked plants, just something to keep in mind.
