Are you planning a soil grow? or Hydro?
Yeah I suppose you could. I would soak them in H2O2 or bleach though. If this is your first grow do yourself a favor and do as much reading as you can. There are a ton of awesome grows on this website to help give you ideas and watch from others mistakes. My first grow I thought I could throw a clone in a hydro setup and be rocking... wrong, lol. I have learned a ton from this site though. Best of luck dude!!! Keep us updated.Yeah I was planning on hydro in a small netcup. The depth of the cup is only about 2 inch so I shouldnt lose that much space , plus the top of the lid is about 1/2 inch above the top of the actual container. I found a bunch of tiny fish tank type pebbles under the house , it's actually clay so maybe some guy before me was doing hydro also. I've washed them off and they look ok , could I just reuse these as a option to hold the plant in place?
Just like anything else, you get what you give............
and shock the fuck out of your roots?Just keep it simple. A black 5 gallon bucket. If you are worried about water temp just use frozen water bottles.
......and they get Sshhhhhhhooccooooeecckkeeedddddd.............and shock the fuck out of your roots?
Nope. No shock, all though my rez is separate from the roots. I put frozen water bottles in my rez throughout summer. I have had slime, root aphids and all kinds of problems because of a warm rez. It's like taking a cold shower after sweating your ass off all day. You have winter coming upand shock the fuck out of your roots?
Big difference between dropping it in with roots and with out rootsNope. No shock, all though my rez is separate from the roots.
I can't say one way or the other as to droppping them directly on your root zone. But it is still the same idea. The roots would be warm and then get sprayed with chilled water every 4 mins. Then again I have never dropped anything into my root chamber, well minus a shit load of hydroton, ha, those fucking things have caused so many clogs but that is another story.Big difference between dropping it in with roots and with out roots
