Zandor does not use rapid rooters. He uses peat pellets for seedlings, and Z clones with an aero-unit.

I use rapid rooters for seedlings, and rockwool for clones.
The rapid rooters are excellent for any type of growing method...It is an organic starter...that is all. It is tree bark and gypsum.

Just put the rapid rooter in a netpot and use hydroton expanded clay pellets to backfill around it.

It is in fact an ideal starter. I was looking for an alternative to peat pellets and rockwool when I came across rapid rooters, and will not effect your ph in hydro...peace latewood

I was planning to put it into soil but I changed my mind. I would like to grow it hydroponicly. Do I have to remove it from the rapid rooter before I can put in the hydropnic medium or can I leave it it tact? The roots are already through the rooter hanging down. If I remove it from the rooter I think I might hurt the root system so I would rather just place it in tact in the basket with the clay in my hydro. I'm just Rating: 5
