It's more of a choice and experience really because Rockwool blocks are just a soilless substrate or growing medium.

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 Soil pH
Biobizz Lightmix is the only soil I could see 6.5 that's why I use it but this time I measure it's 7 my question how come does it happen even though the water it's been getting was no more than 5.8 all the time? I know my organic ph thing adjusts it only for couple of hours.

Organic slow-release fertiliser tablets
Bought tabs with slow-release for 10-12 weeks -> usage 30gr/1 ounce per plant. Should I mix it with pre-fertilized soil of 3 weeks? (15L/4gallon pot) Their Customer Support told me the plants would be fine. I have to mix it in the beginning. Possibility for overfeeding????

Moss in 2nd week
Hey everyone, What should be the next course of action as moss has grown on the plants in the past two days (and it seems likely that the pH level is excessively acidic - source the internet)? https://growdiaries.com/diaries/169293-grow-journal-by-grizzlytwitterdruid

Do I need to add nutrients to a premixed soil?
I'm using Cost of Maine Grower's Blend (Silver Bag) and am coming into the 2nd week or so of flowering. Do I need to top dress with any nutrients or is the soil enough on its own? Growing autoflowers in 3 Gallon pots.
