Help asap please?!?!?! Got baby clones ak47 clones

Hey people, the title says it all!
I've just got my 3 4 week old rooted AK47 clones in rockwool and am unsure what to feed?
Am putting them straight into my DWC system under CFL's to Veg and then two 600W Hps to Flower(am getting cheese clones in 2 weeks that will be added eventually:])
Please help. I've just realised my PPM meter has run its course(or batteries) too so need to get a new one:evil:
Will get pics up ASAP:)
Am very optimistic!

Please help a toker in need!
And any other info for a first-timer?
Done a lot of research but would like to know anything you may know?

Much respect

Peace!!!

I don't grow DWC and I think the PPM numbers are different so let's not talk specific numbers. If my probe on my PPM pen went out I would fly blind but I wouldn't expect great growth. What I did was I planned on running 1/4th nutrients basically to start, so I made it 1/8th instead and ordered a new PH pen. You can't play with water growing without a PH and PPM meter so don't expect to be going to far without one.

Lot's of stoners are lazy though and you see the guys just mixing it in a vat and leaving it. Not checking PH or PPM, people grow like this but it wouldn't just be asking for problems it would be like proactively hunting problems down to bring back on yourself.
 
Thanks for getting back to me guys!
I'm using Ionic G and B and as my pen is working again (it was the batteries!) think I am going to have the ppm at .8 and gradually build them up? I'm not expecting great amounts but I am fairly confident I will reap nice rewards;)
My babies are about 6-7 inches now and are under CFL's in a converted wardrobe at my friends...major trust going on! will get pictures up but I'm running my comp from boot disk so cannot atm:(

Again thanks and any advice for first time grower? I think I have all my bases covered but anything would be appreciated?

Peace

ps I would never leave the water pH or not check the PPM meter...would feel sorry on the poor plant lol

I don't grow DWC so this is where I can't help you too much, how to play with nutrient levels in DWC. But I guessed your lighting right, your plants look good from what I haven't seen of CFL grows, nice and healthy I think you will hit paydirt.

It is really not to complicated just pick a basic nute with a A/B mixture and follow directions for feeding. there are so many nutes out there its really up to you. a really good start would be GH nutes but again its your choice.

Hey firsty thanks. I gave my babies 0.8 on my ppm but when i checked today it was at .4. They are in my friends and i don't think he set water level high enough so they were getting starved:evil: But only for two days and they show no signs off under-feeding! I topped up again though? only to.6 this time but is that wise?

Your help is appreciated!

Peace

I don't understand what your asking
 
No worries man I understand what I mean but thanks anyway!
Here are some pics of my clones3 days apart. Been in the DWC for a week, feeding Ionic G+B (was keeping my ppm at .8 but putting it up to 1 today and my pH is at 5.8-6.0) and they seem to be doing well!
Let me know what you think.

Peace
