I'm new to this and this is my first grow tent. Everything seems to be going well but I want others to weigh in. What do you thing of my setup in the picture. Anything I should change?

I'm not in the ratings business, but I have some suggestions:

1. Your watering system is great, I use one myself for when I am going to be away. However, I do not believe that it is appropriate for long term use as the roots will grow around the clay peg as opposed to spreading throughout the pot. This will result in smaller plants and less of everything that implies.
2. Be sure to clean your jug between watering's as yucky stuff will start to grow in it.
3. This system does not allow you to measure your PH at the roots as you have no runoff. This is okay at the moment but will greatly inhibit diagnoses of any issues that may occur later.
4. I know nothing about your light so I cannot comment on it. However, it is the most important piece of gear you will buy. Your yields and strength depend upon it.
5. As your plants grow bigger, add soil to fill the pots up. This will encourage additional root growth and stronger stems. You can bury the stems up to the first node.

Yeah I figured the clay spikes aren't meant to be long term they're only set up now because either had to go out of town the past two days so I'm going to pull them.

I'm not sure how much nutrient water I should give each plant. Or how often it should get nutrients. That jug has a 1/2 tsp of dynagrow pro foliage. I water every two days. I split a gallon of the nutrient water between them


The light is 100w 1000E https://myhigrow.com/product/myhigrow-2-x-2-grow-tent-complete-kit-with-24x24x48-grow-tent-100-watt/
 
Could you guys send me some info on this watering system? I need to leave my girls for a few days soon and I’ve been looking at options for feeding when I’m away

they're called blumat spikes. you just fill them with water stick it in the soil next to the plant and put the tube end into a reservoir like you see in the pics

Put 4 drops of lemon juice per 10 ltrs of water. That will improve it heaps without over doing it.
