Hi,
I have just decided to start my first grow, so I saved up for a hydroponics set up (gt205), 400watt hps lamp and 5 big bang seeds from the greenhouse seeds company.
I then set all this up in my wardrobe and began germinating the seeds. Which is where i started to get a bit confused.
I currently have then between some kitchen roll in a bowl with a bag wrapped round it with my hps light about 2 foot above this bag. Is this the best way to germinate?
I also have rockwool cubes, the guy gave me one all the same size with little circular holes at the top about 1inch accross and half an inch down. How do I transfer the seeds into these?
After research on the internet I found it says to "transfer the rockwools cube into your nft once the roots are showing". But what do you do from the point of putting the seeds with the little roots sticking out into the rockwool, till you have all the roots are coming out the rockwool cubes?
And finally, you will be happy to know, how often do you allow the motor to pump water to the top?
I hope this all makes sense, I have tried to look around for the answers to these questions, but not really found anything of any use,
Sorry if these questions have already been asked, I did have a brief look, but just needed to ask these specific questions.
Cheers
