Default air stones under the plant?

I just read something about some cat using air stones under his plants and the growth rate increasing..

how does that work? I mean, is he doing hydro, or soil? I have never heard of this, but more o2 should do exactly what he said.. Increase growth.. right?

It would work well in hydro...like DWC or waterfarms...but in soil or soiless mixes...the stones would just clog up and you would have more of a pain in the ass than anything.

Drink!

All the time. Roots like oxygen. It's called "aeroponics."
