Staring with bubble ponics and Easyryder

I just received my kit today in the mail from Stealth Hydroponics.

I have 3 Feminized AK47 x Lowryder seeds that I have been germinating. I was reading in a High times article that with rockwool cubes its best to let your seed rootlets grow to about a half an inch before planting into rockwool cubes or they may pop out.... so Im ready now.

First, since they have germinated and are Autos, how do I set up the nutes? Should I wait a few weeks to give them anything but just water, or do I add a 1/4 solution of grow nutes and micro nutes?

If any person has any experience with autos and this system help me please.

I have grown in soil before, but never in a hydro or bubbleponic system.

I have a six plant system. Due to size of the AK47 genetics, I will only be growing three plants. Do I just duct tape the other holes to prevent light from getting in?

What do I do with the 3 extra tubes.

ANY AND ALL HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I have been reading around Rosemnans, and Purp Daddy's threads... but need more information on the autos... Thanks.

Hang on till tomorrow. The resident guru, Roseman, is going to start a new thread and do a step by step tutorial as he does and SH grow from scratch. He will cover everything and post pics. I and several others are timing ou grows to go along with him. Get your other stuff ready and watch for the post probably Sunday. He is going to do one grow with germinated seeds and one where he germinates in the bp. You should soak your rockwool and grow medium overnight too.

PS, yes you put cardboard or something over the empty holes and tape it down. And meanwhile read and join the bubbleheads on this thread:
