Can I grow in two different size mediums?
I am growing in a rotating garden and I am starting in a ez cloner. The ez cloner has it's own plugs and then I am switching the cuttings to rockwool plugs made for cuttings. Do I place roots at all in plug or let every bit hang out the bottom? Also, the rockwool for this system is 4x4x2.5" and I am starting in 1" until I get all the clones I need. Can I just take the 1" plug and put into the 4"? Will the roots be ok? How long can they stay under 18 hrs. in a 1" cube before I can switch to the 4"? Thanks everyone!

If no one is sure, does anyone at least know when I transplant into rockwool is the starting point of the roots supposed to be in part of the rock wool or the stem right at the bottom with all roots hanging out?

actually I am confused by what you are asking exactly. I will try to answer. Maybe its you...maybe its me and that bowl of Orange Crush with bubbleberry hash on top.
when using a aerocloner and transplanting into rockwool, you want to transplant right when there are bumps showing for roots. If you wait to long, you risk damaging the roots when putting the cutting into the rockwool. You should transplant the 1" rockwool into the larger rockwool when there are roots poking out of the 1" rockwool. Not pouring out, just poking out.

OK cool, but if the roots are kinda long on some do I let any part of the root stay up inside the 1" or let it all hang out underneath? I am waiting on a pump and lights for my system and don't have enough room for all my clones and over night I think some of the roots grew 3". Can I cut them?
