:bigjoint:I plan on growing hydroponically with a 400W MH Veg for a Month and a half for with 8 White Widow seeds I ordered from the Netherlands i'm germinating when my grow box arrives.k Then, i'm going to switch the balasts, and flower for 2 months or so at 12on/12off with HPS. I have nutrients, and I have a reverse osmosis water system to fill my hydroponics table with good PH/PPM water for measuring good amounts of initial nutrients to my seends for germination. I have an automated doser that will allow nutrients to be added automatically. I also have a PH Balancing hydroponic doser to lock in my PH Levels 24/7, and timers for my lights. I have a small area maybe as much as 10 plants. I can follow some nutrient instructions and do quite well don't you think?


My first question that I have not been able to have answered is how to germinate hydroponic seeds. Do I soak rockwool starter cubes with a small amount of nutrients, put in the seeds in a small hole, and cover up a bit in the rockwool, and put them into a greenhouse tray and let them germinate & sprout while opening the greenhouse tray once per day, uner 4 T5 florescent bulbs set to 16/8. At a temperature of 68 Degrees Ferenheight?

How will I be germinating hydroponic seeds and on their way to a 16/8 400 M/H Veg period?

1.) Take rockwool and soak with 7.0 PH Water with how much PPM of nutrients for how many hours do I soak?
2.) Insert Seeds 5MM below suface of rockwool cube?
3.) Put in a greenhouse tray & ensure a C02 enriched air environment?
4.) Set florescents to 18on/6off?
5.) Maintain 68 degree ferenheight (20Degrees Celsius) environment?
6.) Wait 10-12 days and transplant to hydroton stone containers?

Everyone, should I trust all of this information is accurate? My seed bank recommened this website when I asked them about germination:
http://www.cannabis-seed-banks.com/germinating-cannabis.html
Or is there more accurate information somewhere that i've been looking for on the specifics of germinating 8 seeds - 10 seeds for the purpose of hydroponic growth?

This is what I have gathered so far on my initial steps when my box arrives. Am I on the right track? Will ReP+
