Don't let the cubes get too wet. Just damp.

Are you going straight into net pots? What is your medium going to be?

It sounds like you are on the right track. What size is your grow space, and how many do you plan on running?

Get a mh/hps combo 600w with dimmable ballast. A good vent fan will be needed but the results will be worth it.
