I'm about to root some clones into my pots. I'm pretty sure we're going with straight hydroton unless someone can come up with a really good reason to add rockwool or something.
What I need to know is how many cycles a day should I go with? I was thinking 6-7 since hydroton doesn't saturate. With rockwool I'd guess at 1-2 times with the waterline just touching the bottom of the cubes...and some hand watering to give them a good start.
Is that anything close?
I'm usng and ebb and grow system with Aquaflakes A &B, their enzyme booster, and their root excellerator, at about 6.0 pH and a dash of peroxide once a day to keep algae down. I've got an airstone in the tank to turn it over, although it doesn't totally prevent some settling of the nutes.
Thanks,
