Hi All, for the ebb n flow - what if the plants are in 1.5 inch rockwool cubes and in 6 inch square pots with holes in the bottom with hydroton packed around the side and covering the top of the rockwool cube - and i use nothing (no hydroton) to cover the sourrounding area outside of the pots... I understand that roots shouldn't be exposed to light. so... what if i cut the roots if it got too long / outside of the pot to prevent light interference... theoretically it shouldn't matter because the size of roots don't matter in a hydroponic system... Right?
I just let my roots do whatever. they wont go to far outside the bucket if there is alot of light.I put clones in 7" square pots in my 3x6 tray and the roots show in about 10 days.
