soil to start my plants
Hi Ron. Yet another question... I'm starting some peas in the smaller 2 inch rock wool and am
wondering if i'm doing the right thing here. Should I maybe use soil to start my plants or use another type medium? Thanks Ron Reece |

You can go from rockwool to grow rocks. Just make sure your water level rises high enough to wet
the cubes until they grow new roots. I primarily use vermiculite soaked with Olivia's Cloning Solution with almost a 100 percent success rate for cuttings. I also use vermiculite for starting seeds. I sprinkle the seeds in a tray of Oliveras soaked vermiculite with another thin layer to cover the seeds and when the plants are big enough to transplant into your system I loosen the vermiculite around the roots with a spoon and rinse to remove loose vermiculite before carefully putting grow rocks around the plant roots in the solo cups.
