if i start seeds in rockwool, when the plant gets to transplanting size, can i jus plop the whole cube into a pot of soil? Ive been using peat pellets but i havent had good luck. Im also considering using the coconut fiber cubes. any advice would be appreciated. thanks

beautiful, thanks! i wanna use rockwool instead of straight to soil cuz A) its just bagseed so theyre not too important B) trying to get as many healthy sprouts as possible but all in seperate mediums, so this works. thanks again!

hey type x, what are those things covering your soil? is it just so it doesnt dry out as fast because there isnt direct light on it

Jewce, if your talking about the white pellets it's the soil. Fox farm black gold with guano and worm cassings. Also FilthyFletch i leave the plastic on the side so the roots go down. I have had a few poke out the sides and i just didnt like the way it looked. that's all..
