Default Getting Clones Tomarrow, Steps needed?

Ok, so i'm buying clones tomarrow from the despensary. First, I was wondering what are the correct steps to take when buying my clones, I don't want to spend the cash to have them die on me.

I have a nice ebb and flow and a 400 watt mh. I also have 2 85 watt cfls, I have small rockwool cubes and hydroton rocks, 4 inch pots, and 8 inch pots. I also have a bubbleponics system. Unfortuneatly, I have never grown clones before.

so I was wondering should I start my clones in the bubbleponics with the 2 clfs and transplant them later or should I just put them into the ebb and flow right away?. I'm worried that the water in my ebb and flow won't reach to the clones. Would it be easy to take them out of the bubbleponics and transplant them into the bigger containers? I've read that clones don't do very well under intense light at first.


thank you in advance

IT is KEY that the clones do not have MITES... this is first and foremost.. the most important element...

The clones should be rooted, and can be put straight into ANY medium with proper PH..

OK.

I got my clones today but they were in a rockwool cube and soil when I got them.They are about 8 inches tall. I took them from the soil being very careful not to damage the roots. I got as much dirt off as I could by dipping them in water. I put them in my bubbleponics and surrounded the cubes with hydroton. They seem to be doing ok and from what I can tell theres no signs of them drying out.

The hoses are directed right on the hanging roots and towards the bottom of the rockwool. I have it set on a timer to water for 15 mins every other 15 mins. They are sitting 20 inches away from a 400 watt metal halide. I set the ph to about 5.5, and I haven't given them any nutrients yet.

Any advice or comments? I'd like to know how i'm doing so far and if theres anything I've missed. Pics coming soon
