thats whats up bro..ill be starting my first auto grow soon..and ill def. be tuned in to yours
Cool! I'll let you know. Maybe even as early as today (I hope)
Anyway, how do you guys go about it from seed? 12 hour soak in distilled water, then into jiffy/rockwool/root riot, then straight to final pot, or do you plant then in a smaller pro and later on transplant to the final pot?
I have read somewhere that transplanting in coco can be an very over sensitive...
comments?

You don't need to use cal-mag unless u see signs of deficiency. Your base nutes already have some and your tap water too. Like TBM said too much and you will lock out other nutes.

Transplanting into coco is quite easy, out of coco not so much.
I'd recommend using canna rhizotonic to speed up your rooting and make transplanting less stressful. I usually see roots hit the bottom of the pot a few days after transplanting into coco so not much shock.

Hey mates, np Im here to help.
I usually go from seed/cutting to rockwool cube (relatively small) into final pot. I dont like transplanting 6L->10L , etc. as it is quite messy with coco and you often break up the root system while doing it, hence why I usually always go for the biggest pot I can from the start. I have also done seed directly into final pot (3 or 6L) but you will have to be careful when watering as to not to disturb the intial small seedling. (If you dont have anything that disperses a gentle jet, get any water bottle and make a few holes in the cap)
However, if you really do need to transplant coco -> coco, I would recommend you wait until the coco dries up and you can see gaps on the sides/corners between coco and pot, in that case slowly reverse the pot upside down, with ur palm spread around the base of the plant/coco, with plant stem going between ur fingers, tap it gently to shake off the pot, remove the pot gently. Some ppl will run a knife around the edge between coco/pot before doing this, thought Ive never needed to. Once done, use the free hand to hold the bottom of the coco gently (too much force will break the cake). -Slowly- turn the plant upright again with ur hands trying to secure the coco and keep it from breaking apart. A helper would often be handy when doing this, and obviously the better rooted your plant the more your coco will have some inherent integrity as to not break apart when trying to transplant.
Goodluck
