[solved] How to decrypt drives at boot

I have Arch installed on a NvMe drive and additionally I have one more NvMe and two more SADA SSDs. All 4 of which are encrypted using luks.
The issue is, that when I boot my system the mounting of the additional drives fails because they're still encrypted. So I have to wit 90 seconds before being able to decrypt them as super user.
Adding the drives to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub does not fix the issue.
What do I need to do, so that I just have to enter the respective passwords to decrypt them at boot time?

I'd appreciate any help.

Thank you in advance
