Let's assume small plants, 1-2wks old in rapid rooters or small rockwool cubes. Just wondering how deep you put new plants, seedlings and cuts, into netpots, 6"netpots, and if you've noticed growth differences? I've done from a thin layer of hydroton on the bottom, maybe 1", to better than half the depth of the netpot. Other than adjusting water levels to get to the plant, I don't think I've seen any easily discernable differences. I was thinking shallower planting, closer to the top of the pot, would encourage a larger root mass, seeing how the roots would have to branch out through the rocks more searching for water, but I haven't seen it.
I've never seen it talked about, it's the couple inches not that big of a deal?
