Rockwool/jiffy pellets in ebb and gro

Hello friends,

Just a few quick questions since i've never used these in a hydro setup.

I got some clones rooted in Jiffy pete pellets. Transplanted them into 4" rockwool and buried that about 1 1/2" below flood line on my ebb n gro setup.

My main question is how often should I be watering? These plants are in their 1st week of veg.

Was originally flooding 4 times per day, but the pellets on top of the rockwool seemed soaked all the time so I just backed it down to 3 times a day. Every 8 hours.

Rockwool is sticking out of hydroton about 2 inches so it has plenty of air to dry out between cycles. I'm just worried about the pellets on top.

Humdity in the room is ~15-20%.

Any info is helpful.
