Almost ready to germinate...... Last minute questions, advice appreciated!!!!!!

BuddMarsh - I thought of cooling racks, but was worried about rusting. I think we're going to use some plastic hangers we have around the house for now, but will be looking at better options for future grows.
 
Autoflowering strains need lights on - blooming will happen about 3 weeks after they sprout, little white pistils will appear. So, NO 12/12 for them - full blast all the way through!
 
Thanks so much yamiacaveman, tons of great comments!! Will def leave water for a few days before soaking, seems to be a common suggestion. rinsing pots was an after thought, I mean who knows what they've been around...so checkmark will rinse :) Love the idea of flipping rooters over, I saw where another grower pinches the bottoms to make them flat but just as easy to flip over. good call!! Wasn't sure about the solo cup part in between germination and potting for good, but sounds like a pretty good choice the way you describe it.
Good to hear the fans and air circulating is a bit of a puzzle depending on the situation,temps etc. As others have said this will be my "learning grow" :D Like the PVC pipe idea, PoppaBear also suggested the same. Might be an idea for next grow, like the fan/filter mod you did but as far as we can tell our roof bars are only rated for 60 lbs...now I'm not sure if that's 60 per bar or overall.....PoppaBear is already designing a wood structure to go inside the tent that will hold up anything I want to hang....I've got him on hold right now, he loves him some building projects!!
Starting to draw up and print off some stuff to hang up on walls, I'm using the GH Trio Coco schedule that's on the GWE tutorial and converting it to different mix sizes so I'll be ready at a quick glance :)
 
Thanks @Potted!!! It's absolutely amazing the amount of support and knowledge here, I'm truly humbled to be even a small part of it. I'm hoping one day we'll have journals like some of the folks that have been around here for awhile, Peace!
 
These are certainly an option...... I may have to get out my ski mask and dark clothing to acquire them though ;) hahahahaha
 
I bent the cookie racks i had lolol This has been the most intense project Ive ever attempted, I have lupus so having this investment work is so important, I also feel the finacial weight! My hubby who has never even faked inhaling, let alone tried any drugs, is now becoming a growing guru lol
 
I hear ya CCisme !!! we've done tons of building together, fences, 12x16shed insulated and wired, bathroom etc. I've even had a garden the last four years and several fruit bushes but this.... this is a whole new scene for us too!!! Loving it already though!!!!
 
Canuck147 Didn't mean to give erroneous information (me being a hydro grower and all)!!! But I thought that you didn't want to put a tiny plant into a huge pot right off the bat, because it won't dry out quickly and dangers of over-watering. Am I wrong?
 
To funny because this is what I did and my biggest worry right now. So I planted into my final pot sun (5g smart pot, 2 week old seedling), my concern was/is overwatering for the next few weeks.
 
I'm not too worried about overwatering or having to water more ( I say that now but just u wait I'll be posting in no time about that haha), like the idea of only moving them once though.
