I have a lot of lose rockwool and cant get ahold of any hydroton. My question is can I breakup the rockwool and use that or do i have to use a different medium such as river rock.
Seriously? No Garden Centres, no eBay?cant get ahold of any hydroton.
I read you can use lava rocks but didn’t wanna try till I got more opinions but the closest store is cross state line and the closest rural route box is 25+ miles away.Seriously? No Garden Centres, no eBay?
Somebody on RIU has used aquarium gravel with no complaints.
Definitely not, they will fk with your ph big time.medium such as river rock.
I'm using ActiveAQUA "The Root Spa" Single Site. The soil is same issue as the Hydroton its far, but more expensive to ship. Looks like I better get ready for some traveling!What system do you want to use?
It can work in certain situations, like I start and run my plants for 4 weeks or so in Rockwool, but then I transplant into Hydroton in a RDWC system.
You might just want to use soil, and screw the Rockwool.
Definitely not! I'm running Mammoth Microbes. It's not my first grow just my first time in DWC or anything other than soil/cocoDef dont use miracle gro
you can use rockwool. tear or cut it up into smaller pieces and it should work fine. they sell rockwool croutons that are maybe 1" by 1" by 1" cubes.Looks like I better get ready for some traveling!
