It's more of a choice and experience really because Rockwool blocks are just a soilless substrate or growing medium.
CRiSPrGrowanswered grow question 5y ago
uhm sure they do, some even do NFT in a 2'x4' it's not a problem , just a choice. My thing with rockwool is that it doesnt work as well as a normal root plug, but it does become necessary when you want to grow sterile. hope this helps ! 🚀

adjusting ph level with BioBizz Light Mix and coco mixI have been adjusting my ph level to around 6.2-6.5. Now I'm wondering whether this was a mistake (see previous post), since I'm using BioBizz Light Mix (60%), coco coir (30%) and perlite (10%) as my substrate. Our tap water has a ph level of about 7.3.Week 5

Can you please tell me if the sides need to be covered with earth?When I covered the soil in the beginning it wasn't like that, but after waterings the soil shrunk and now there is space between the pot fabric and the soil. Should I add more soil to avoid root problems? And also the water drains down there and quickly runs downhill 😞

he comprado este insecticida que su composición es Lambda cihalotrin y Benzisotiazol puedo utilizarlo en mis plantas??Hey, my plant is starting to get fungus gnats and thrips. I bought this insecticide, but after getting home, I realized it doesn't have pyrethrin, and since it's not from any cannabis-specialized brand, I wanted to know if I can use it. What do you guys think??
