I start all of my seeds out in rapid rooters and I just transfer the whole rapid rooter into my net pots, I put about an inch of hydroton into my net before I drop the rapid rooter in, this keeps the bottom half moist, but not so wet that the taproot drowns... I've found I don't have to top water my seedlings because of this, as soon as roots pop out of the bottom of the rapid rooter, it goes straight into the hydroton and the tub. I also maintain the same water level all throughout the grow... about 1-1/2 inches below the net pot.
FoothillsFarmer Reviewed by FoothillsFarmer on . PLEASE NEED DWC HELP! I am starting DWC, but if I have a plant that I started in peet pellet and is now in soil, can I clean off the peet pellet and put it in my media or will the roots not get anything. I guess what I'm asking is, do I have to use a clone started in a hydro set to start my hydro set. I'm worried that if I put my plant in my DWC now, it wont get anything because the roots are small. Any help would be awesome. Rating: 5
