I have just bought a 2x2x2 meter tent with 2 8x11l wilma kits with 3 x600w hps lights how does that sound?

I'm using coco coir professional and need a little advice How many times do I water a day and if I'm using cuttings do I just place the plant directly into the coco or into rockwool first

Thanks in advance

What are the clones in now? Typically start in Rock wool first then when roots start popping out the bottom/side transplant rock wool into coco.
As far as watering goes i would give it a few days for the coco to dry out just a little so the roots can spread out a bit then water well. Do this 2-3 timea then water everyday. When in bloom (rough estimate) you can ramp it up to multiple feedings a day. Try to achieve 30% run off, but no nessacery.
Good luck on your grow

Thanks for the response
It's growing in soil atm would this effect the growth if I then transfer it to coco after rinsing off the soil in water

how big is the container there in now? If its kinda small container, like 1 gal or less then id say just be very careful doing this, not to damage roots too much and stress out the plant.
What i would do to avoid shocking the plant to any degree is just transplant directly into coco. I actually did this my current run with no prob. Depending on how much coco to soil ratio your probably going to have to adjust ph a bit from the usual 5.8 pr so. Me personal the one plant i have in the coco/soil mix i ph to 6.3 every time.
