You mentioned using silica stone for a growing medium, and that it's porous. Where do you get it? Is it pH stable? Is it easily available and less expensive than traditional grow rocks? |
It is Sunleaves silica stone. It normally costs about the same as hydroton and is easily reusable. I could have went with a cheaper medium, but with the expected life, ease of use, absorption etc., it seemed to be pretty efficient. I caught it on sale cheaper than hydroton, so that sealed the deal for a large bag that will last me many years.
