Carrying anything more than 10 to 15 6" cubes (rockwool) becomes obvious when you leave the store. Making several smaller trips is obvious too. Hydro stores are watched by not only Law Enforcement but other not-so-pleasent folks and I want to avoid all that if I can.

I know a grower who gets terrific results using Rockwool cubes exclusively. The 1" for clones and the 6" for growing. Very large yields in less than 90 days and extremely good quality too.

I am hoping that the mix of Peat and Pearlite will avoid the two characteristics you mentioned. Just as cement, sand and aggragate mix is much better/stronger than just any one of the components by itself is. (for making concrete)

Just looking for advice if anyone has tried this.

thanks,
