Well I happen to think It's an interesting method. Us guerrilla folk have to keep things as far away from our houses as possible. Cause in my case It's cut clones. Take em back and root em. Them back to the field. That's 2 instances of transporting plant matter. Also manufacturing avoided. So it pretty much just added another step to stealth.

rapid rooters made of pressed cocoa or tree bark seems like it would work really easy....kinda like a sponge but more legit sounding

im not sure but are you trying to debate what "dirt" is? i don't fully understand your point,
there is a lot of dirt i would never in grow out there....so go ahead numb nuts use "dirt" from the back yard, becuase you to cheap to spend money on anything really. see how that works out for you. some dirt has a lot of clay, some "dirt" will have alot of composted plant matter. some "dirt" will have none. some "dirt" has lots of sand it it. some dirt turns hard as a rock after it gets wet and dries. some "dirt" even just dissolves into the water. also dirt comes from outstide and my be contaminated with who knows what....lets agree to leave the dirt outside on the ground where it belongs yeah?

so point being DIRT IS A BROAD TERM, and with advanced cultivation maybe we should be more specific

I doubt if any one is even going to try this, but, there are damn good reasons why one should use sphagnum moss.

I find this technique works well with my dwc trees...it allows me to take a branch thas stem is at least thumb thickness and make a nice big mom out off it.....

Rapid rooters work well (even organic too uben lol)

If you used Rockwool; I take it that you soak the rockwool like typical to get the pH balance, shake the rockwool so it still has moisture, but isn't soaked. Then cut it, place it around the branch, the wrap with plastic?
