    Doubt about starting seeds in rockwool

    With seeds the taproot is driven by gravity, it makes it easier for a seed to not have work out which way is up but it really doesn't matter... it's honestly best you handle the seed as little as possible before planting... soak it in mj friendly water until it sinks (stirring it every 20-30...

    when do you let the rapid rooter fully dry?

    Just as a rule of thumb (you look like you need very little direction, your doing good) but you never let rapid rooters dry out especially in the rooting or germination stage of growing but you don't really ever let them dry out unless there in soil n just a tiny piece stretched out by a 2" stem...

    That's why you never dump the bag before running water through them... poke a bunch of holes with a pen sized apparatus that's not gonna break and leak ink all over your grow stones as you stab away like the shower scene in psycho at the bottom 1/3 of the bag, then cut the top off the bag (all...

    I agree... I like the idea of rockwool as an alternative if I needed more water retention because I couldn't water as frequently as I can using hydroton, I don't know why I would be in that position but i guess if less waterings is beneficial to your grow, rockwool is the ticket... I like the...

    They make rockwool croutons that are like 3/8x3/8 square little rockwool chunks that help skip all that ripping up larger cubes and work lovely when u pop a clone in a 3x3+ cube to fill the rest of the hole in... It's like rockwool dirt if u will... I literally stopped drinking bottled water...

    I've heard that it's not especially wise to eat more than 2 meals a week out of the ocean in one form or another due to the mercury levels in the ocean life we make into food... technically I don't eat it at all which is why I don't know for certain but I live in a coastal state and I've heard...

    If your looking to reuse, or even prolonged use... coco isn't what u want... coco is an organic medium and will eventually break down and release P or K...

    Where to find 2" flex pipe?

    Can you make up that much? 2.375" od is smaller than 2-1/2 sch. 40 which the uniseals are made for right? I hear people always complaining about uni's leaking so that's the reason I'm asking cuz I know if you don't drill the perfect hole with the right size pipe, you're gonna end up with a leak...

    Where to find 2" flex pipe?

    Look at well pump supply stores... it's not going to be as big as 2" pvc as your "2" unseals" are meant for... I believe the inside diameter of your 2" uniseal will be around 2-1/2 or 2-9/16 which 2" well pump hose/tubing isn't going to be as thick as far as OD... of all the pipe sizes I know to...
