Rockwool block sizes / plant sizes / 3×3×6' space

VitaManstarted grow question 9mo ago

No irrelevant responses about other medium this time! I succeed with drip hydroton and coco. 3'×3'×6' tent. Exploring rockwool as a mediums for (4×bushy indica) and (9×single cola SOG) I can get 3×3, 4×4×2.5, 4×4×4, and 6×6 blocks. What do you recommend?

I don't think it's really gonna matter. Whatever makes sense for your setup. If you're growing a plant of any size, even the 6x6 will probably need to be anchored in some way or the plants trellised to keep them from falling over. Personally I don't even like rockwool as a starter cube, pretty sure I'd hate it as a primary media. Good luck.

The possibility of using runoff, oxygenated, tested, adjusted to hydro levels and reused? Will it work or have I wasted money again?I'm using my own mix of soil composed of approx. 30% advanced organics potting soil, 30% peat, 15% coco, 15% perolite, 10% .5x.5x.5 compost. I am using a drain table and 2- 40 gallon fabric pots, capturing all my runnoff into a large tote that is being oxygenated, will this work?

Clay pebbles at the bottom I'm thinking using this like maybe an half inch in 4 gallon fabric pot - for better airflow for roots & to prevent overwatering. They absorb the excess well and give off slowly. Been doing this with my normal plants at home and it works well for them. Anyone with experience?

adjusting ph level with BioBizz Light Mix and coco mix I 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.

noticed the ph in the Pots is at 6.5+, something to do with the Hydroton. In order to balance it i had to drop the res PH to 4.0, but it constantly rises back up to 6. Using RO water Suggestions appreciated, will the Hydroton eventually stop having the ability to raise my PH?
