I was just wondering whether anyone has experience with Oxy Pots, This is my first attempt at using them. I have a few questions.

1. How much water do I have to put into the pot?

2. How big should the plant be in the Rockwool before transplanting?

3. Do I have to water initially once transplanted as the roots wont be hanging in the water.

4. An how often should I change the water.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

root your cuttin in rw then place it in oxy pot basket in clay pebbles. fill oxypot up so the water level is just touchin the base of the net holdin your plant. start with ec around.6/.8. hey presto. once you've teased the roots out of the net lowwer the water level about 1 inch below net to tease more out. dont worry about manually waterin it, theres a lot of moisture kickin about on inside of bucket. hope that helps... its frickin amazin once it gets goin

hey hermitage ,
never beleive or trust the nute manufactures directions . they want you to hurry up n come back to buy somemore man , they dont care if your girls get nute burn / shock / stress etc... listen to your friend -n- start at 1/4 strength n work your way up .
peace
