Massive root balls on em!!
I use straight perlite.
Never heard of straight vermiculite used though.
What's that like to grow in?
I'd imagine it would hold lots of nutes so you could feed lighter?

That's a half gallon container of roots.

Straight perlite is good for cloning but not sure about root zone density, depends on perlite size I suppose.

I think the vermiculite may be able to produce a more/higher density root zone than coco, cause of the fine grains, acts as a "better" sponge later on with a root ball than coco, gotta test it more but yeah

I do Dtw/high-freq-fert mainly, play around with hydro/dwc-rockwool/aero
