Just finished looking over your whole journal. Very nice man! Even though you had slight problems at the beginning you worked everything out to what looks to be a fabulous crop. With a system like this and the will to be a good farmer I wouldn't expect anything less. I bet that bot will make things a whole hell of a lot simpler. Then with an aero flo in the mix one can only expect bigger better yields with shorter harvesting times.
Are you sure this was your first grow?
You have quite a green thumb my friend
I am thinking about trying those also 
let us know how those turn out in your next journal. Good luck and happy gardening
