Hay Bud! Every thing you have mentioned is ok so far!! apart from when you germ your seeds,, Yes soak your rockwool,, But when you place your germed seed "Be sure to place the Root Downward & the seed head pointing UP" I then place in the areo prop with De Chloronated water (Water that has sood at least 24hrs!!) I only put a small drop of root exclareter int the water to a EC of about 0.6 (Remember that normal tap warer has a background EC of about 0.4 to 0.8 Depending where you live!
I use the 12/20 size areo, use only enough water to cover the pump (6ltrs or 3x2ltr pop bottles stood for 24-36hrs then add about 3to5ml to the tank!!
Then turn on! Leave the spray pump on 24hrs a day!
Hopefully all will go well for you
My only concern is the 300w bulb!! Make sure you keep that BIG bulb well up from your new seedlings.. that bulb to close will BURN them babies!! (I use a 2 bulb T5 For Prop, N the Big Bugger for Growing My Mothers..
All te best mate!

Nice one for the help silvering thank you very much i noticed a few things in what u said and i think im short of one or two things u mention the EC so i will have to buy an EC tester i want everything to run as perfect as i can what does the EC measure exactly the nutrients? and wat do i need the EC to be as i go along. Also how high should i keep the cfl from the seedlings and how many days or week roughly should i put them under the 600watt hialide any help will be gratefull thank you.Hay Bud!
