I decided it would be a good idea to document this grow. That way, I can look back on it and see how much I have progressed, and also get help from the local experts along the way! :thumbsup:

This is my very first time with hydroponics.. after countless hours of research I'm still only 90% confident with what im going to be doing.

Two seeds have already sprouted out of the rockwool, 4 Left to emerge. The rockwool was soaked in water with a ph of 5.0-6.0 (I honestly don't know because the PH-Pen needed calibration.)

The two that have already sprouted were placed into the rockwool 3 days or so before the others were planted, and also didn't have light until yesterday. (thats why they are so stretchy).

Im using a single 250w HPS light. It is currently 2.5 feet away from the seedlings (too far? I dont want to kill them with too much light)

I have re-moistened the rockwool yesterday with water with a PH of 5.8, it seemed a bit dry to the touch


QUESTIONS:
1. Rockwool holds a ton of moisture... I don't understand how the roots wont rot when they are in the Ebb and Flow buckets...
Am I supposed to have the water level BELOW the rockwool? Or so it just touches the bottom of the rockwool? Otherwise it i would think it would dry out...

2. Will the nutrients I've chosen (pictures below) okay to use?
