This is my very first grow, but definitely not my last. I only have a small area to work with but I don't mind because I only plan on growing what I can smoke ![bongsmilie bongsmilie bongsmilie](/styles/smilies/bong7bp.gif)
I ordered a Stealth Hydroponics kit a couple weeks back and then decided it would be best to order a grow tent as well. I live in an apartment so I need to be careful about the smell/sound/light/cats.

The tent arrived and I was definitely surprised at the quality and everything, I really love it! The grow tent has a number of venting options. I decided to purchase a 6" Elicent ducting fan that will work as an exhaust and carbon filter (which I plan on DIYing).

Once I had the water's ph at a nice level (5.8-6.2?) I stuck each of my 6 White Widow seeds into their own rock wool cubes. I'm not quite sure how wet these should be staying but I have heard that I should keep the water dripping on them till the roots touch the water and then to unhook the feed hub (something about preventing root rot).
I currently have the tent closed until I start to see the seeds sprout. At which point I am debating on whether to do 24/0 or 18/6 and then switching to 12/12 when they are ready. Any tips here?
I am using the Dual Spectrum II lighting setup and the nutes that came with the kit.I plan on mixing in half a pack of Grow and Micro nutes (which will be strained through a coffee filter until it is completely dissolved). How long till I should feed them these nutes? Unless I hear otherwise I plan on following the feeding schedule that came with my SH kit.
