First time growing with AutoPot - Few Questions

[BaBaBaBa]

Hi there!
I've just bought a new autopot system and I'm going to use it growing AF strains.
there are a few things I'm not sure of and I need the experts help!
1. what is the best way to germinate using this system - paper towel \ small pot and than transfer \ germination in the final pot from the start ?
2. The instructions of the autopot system say to water in the beginning by hand and than don't water for 10 days to let the root look for water and reach the bottom. is that a good idea? and if so, how much do I need to water in the first time and when to do it? after germination?
3. when do I start using the AirDome for the roots?
4. I am using 270w FSF Lighthouse Hydro BlackStar Chrome Grow light Flowering LED, can I use this lemp for Veg? of perhaps i should use some cfl's in the first weeks?
5. I am using BioBees Organic fertilizer and I've heard that I can't use organic fertilizers in an autopot system, is it true? can I put only a few litres every time and let the organic fertilizer sit in the water for 2-3 days or is it a bad thing to do?
allot of questions I know :-\
an answer to any of them would be great
Peace & Harmony

wow not one reply.. well ill give you what i think you should do. I purchased one and have set it up and seems to run fine.
1. I would germinate in a 4" square pot or a solo cup. For cracking seeds I always take a shot glass filled with water and place seeds into shot glass and wait 24hrs till you see them crack then place into little pot
2.After your plants have filled the small square then transplant into the autopot bucket and place onto system, as it says at first hand water and leave the water line from res off. and let the plants grow into the medium(coco,perlite) I waited one week or till the medium felt lighter. then I turned it on and I havent had a problem since.
3. I would wait till you see the water in the res move a couple inches to show the roots are there then turn the domes on.
4. hmm. I would try to use a t5 lamp for veg if possible if not then use the led lamp to veg with unless you already have the cfls.
5.I would not use organic fertilizers, it will clog the watering line because of how small it is. I would switch over to a hydro fertilizer
