Questions about an equipment with drip method

Hello Folks,

So, this is what I plan to buy:

Versa Grow 10 Plant System with Pump

The Versa Grow system offers the perfect blend of performance and simplicity at a very competitive price. This system is the ideal tool to obtain a fast, rich and flavourful harvest, regardless of the growth method or media chosen. Each system comes with 10 3.4 L pots, 264 gph submersible pump...

Because I'm limited money speaking and I can't grow in soil (which I would have had prefer). Anyways...

This is a dripping method. Do you think I have to put my clones in big rockwool and then in the pot and hydrotons and the drip in the rockwool? Or if it's small rockwool with hydrotons, how is it going to stay wet?

My biggest question is: HOW?

Ugh so complicated.

Thanks for any help you can bring me.

You can do coco or rockwool. Rockwool holds a certain amount of water after you irrigate it. Just the right amount of air roots like. You will have it on a timer to irrigate it throughout the day to make sure it doesn't dry out. If the plants are drinking more you irrigate more. Coco and rockwool will grow faster than soil.

Can you just get cubes that fit your square pot? Or just use coco.

I'm doing a dyi top drip next grow as well. Just one half big mama slab.
