    Hi just waiting on my gt424 nft system coming so I'm ordering some 4" rock wool cubes. Cal I start me seeds off in soil then transplant into rock cube when ready to put into nft ?

    Try to be patient just a bit longer til the rockwool cubes tip up before starting your beans off m8. Why add an extra and unnecessary stage with the soil.

    Just my tuppence worth, and may be wide of the mark.

    peace

    Soak your seeds in a small glass of water in a warmish place . Allow them to split and grow a small tap root about ten mm long . Once split soak your cubes in some plain water with a drop or two of rhizo . Let your cubes drain so they are not soaking wet but still damp . Then when you have the tap root transfer to cubes and place the top of the plant just under the surface of the cube . Then keep your eye on them don't let them dry off or get to wet and hand water from the bottom of the cube until you see roots with a very weak rhizo mix . Forgot the soil
