Almost ready to flip... Day 20 since introduced to the system.
ORP turns on at 331mV and turns off at 351mV.
After it turns on, and before it rises, it drops to around 221mV, and after it turns off, it rises to about 376mV.
It stays on for about six minutes, and stays off for another 20 minutes.

Ready to flip... day 25 of veg.
Also, just in case of too much off-gassing, I have discontinued use of ozone for the past 3 days, and seeing my ORP levels hover around 300mV.

A little over a week ago, I ordered a proper ozone reactor and effluent gas and water filtration system... it is being built as I post, and should be ready by next week. I will post details when I install it.

Check out the root growth that the current inside of the bucket, sculpts the root zone.

here's an update... Ozone is on during the day when I am gone, and two hours before I get home, I turn it off with a timer.

All of this, just in case... Until my professionally built ozone reactor with 2 filters arrives.

Here's a quick picture update...

Brix is 9.5... I've never had a brix reading this high before.
I'm used to a brix reading between 3 and 5.

Right now, I'm running 5 eye hortilux 400 watt bare bulbs In a dice configuration...

Switched over to hortilux HPS during flower and during flower, I also have 900 watts of primarily red LEDs that are distributed in four panels... And they are inserted between the spaces between the five bare bulb 400's.

Nice. From your pics its obvious you aren't having any issues with the ozone & nutrients. My next setup will utilize a similar deal, based on your success. :) also interested in fractionating impeller style pumps. Are you using anything for roots? I can't hype IBA enough (for us nerdy/scientific types anyway), and am eternally thankful to the folks on here who turned me onto it.

Quick update.... Got the CO2 running, and upgraded the Ozone reactor... More later.
The inside-the-grow pictures were taken through the Method 7 glasses.

I'm using City water through an RO machine... the water comes out at .2 - .3 EC before going through the RO machine.

The Roots were nothing special coming out of one of my clone machines... one clone machine which is brand-new, spits out bright white roots, and the other one which is several years old, spits out roots that are a little dingy brown.

By now however, without ozone, my roots would typically be a little bit brown by now.
