bubble ponic starting seedlings

Is it hard to start seedlings in a 5 gallon dwc bubble bucket. I started seed in my cool cab once all of em got roots. I hate the cool cab so I wanted to just work out of my buckets. What nut levels would people recomend if any? Thanks all.

for seedlings you don't normally give nutes until you see the very beginning of the third set of true leaves. Start out with something around 200-400 PPM. It is easiest to start seedlings elsewhere until they have the beginning of a nice root base. I like to start out in pete pellet or rockwool cube and when I see roots on the bottom I place them into a 3 inch netpot and surround it with wet coco. In a few more days the roots start showing through the coco and that's when I put them into the DWC.

i grow either from seed in rockwool or in soil and once they have there first leaves i put them into rockwool, once there roots start poking out of the bottom of the rockwool put them in your dwc. keep the nutes at 200ppm and but the time to roots hit the water they should go okay.
