you just need to start at 1/4 strength, so 1/4 of a teaspoon, then every week slowly work your way up. One teaspoon is 5ml.
Every week you should change the rez, its just about a gallon, so al you need to do is get a gallon jug of water, and pre mix the nutes in there, then add into the rez. I wouldn't add any nutrients untill there about two weeks old, people do start at seedlings, but for me i just wouldnt risk it.
Dont know too much about the auto's but there great for the AG, I believe you just keep them on 18 hours on, and 6 hours off. They should show sex on there own. Make sure to read thru that guide for other suplies you will need.
You will need a pH kit, pH UP and DOWN is what you use to adjust your pH to the perfect point. again, 5.5 to 5.8 its good.
