Question Aquarium rocks for grow medium?
permalink
aquarium rocks should be okay for a growing medium in a dwc/aero setup replacing expanded clay right?

I don't really see a reason why they wouldn't... unless the plant roots don't like blue rocks?

I currently use aquarium rocks for my bubbleponics/DWC grow. They work great!
