Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this, if someone could move it to the correct one if this is wrong that would be cool!
Anyway, I have been growing for a few years and I have only ever taken my own clones, but today I got a couple clones from a place that sells them and they came in these big cubes, which I think are rockwool cubes? I have never used these things before so I'm not sure how to proceed.
My question is, what do I do with these things? I'm going to grow these in FFOF soil, so do I just take that plastic off the cube and plant the entire thing into a pot with soil?
Also, I don't know the exact age of these, should there be roots coming out of that cube before I plant it? Should I try and cut away some of that cube so it is not so big or will that just cause more harm than good?
They had these cubes in trays with a 1/2 of water or so in the bottom, should I keep them in a tray with some water until they show roots and then plant them, or plant them right now even though I don't see any roots coming out of the cubes? Or should I just put them in a tray without water at the bottom, since the cubes are very wet and I don't want the clones to get overwatered.
Sorry for so many questions, I just want to make sure I do this right so I don't end up killing them.
Thanks for any advice you can give!
