I bought a clone that is being grown in those brown rocks. I was told just water when needed, but when I do the water just goes right through it. Are the rocks retaining moisture? I'm still a newbie grower, and have only used soil as a medium.

really
ha ha
ya need more than water, youll need good nutes, a hydro system of some kind, or a repot into soil!
and if ya water from above ya need to water alot of times a day, if ya only have one plant, look at making a bubbler or buying a waterfarm , and keep her hydro,

good luck

You can plant it in good potting soil with perlite. I assume you are talking about grow rocks and they are used in hydroponics. You can make a DWC bubbler too and then keep it in the grow rocks. It would grow faster in a DWC bubbler but if you are a first timmer then I suggest dirt.

search DWC...deep water culture...bubblers...3-part

that should get you started. You can read what you need to know to get started in a couple hours, if you retain well and have a good mechanical aptitude.

1st pik is 5 gallon bucket bubbler/DWC.
One dual airpump set-up with/2-5" airstones.

2nd is a pik of the potential oxygen for your roots:D

I have written several tutorials/step by step pictorials of dwc/bubblers in the past 1-1/2. goodluck:smokin:
