5x5x5cm Grow Medium Substrate Rock Wool for Vertical Garden Towers
Rock wool, a lightweight hydroponic substrate,
Is manufactured by melting basaltic rock (and dolomite) and spinning the melted basalt into fibers. The fibers are then coated with a hydrophilic agent, compressed, cured, and cut into large rectangular shapes of rock wool..Characteristics & Benefits:
Completely sterile and inert - ideal hydroponic growing medium. Reduced risk of pests and disease.
Even root growth - predominantly vertical fiber structure means identical levels of resistance for each root, so roots grow evenly.
Increased root development - structure of the rockwool is designed for optimum air / water balance and accelerated rooting.
Uniformity - quality and structure is uniform, so water content and EC (CF) will remain the same for every plant.
Re-wetting - It is is easy to re-saturate if it dries out, reducing the risk of root damage.

Preparation: Rockwool has a naturally high pH of 7 to 8. Prepare a solution of slightly acidic water (pH 5.5 to 6.5) by adding several drops of lemon juice. Soak the rockwool cubes in this solution for about 2 hours.
Sowing Seed: Place 1 or 2 seeds in the hole at the top of the rockwool growing medium. Water using a hydroponic nutrient solution. When the plants are 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.6 cm.) tall, they can be transplanted into soil or placed in a hydroponic garden.
