I just stuck 2 into the cloner to soften and absorb the nutrients and water from the aerocloner. I just set a couple seeds on them. I’ll be back in a hour to check on them
ok one seeds sprouted. So i just stuck the tail into the collar a bit. Well see what happens. I kinda got the tail into the coco layers. Im hoping it grows into to collar like it’s supposed to. But in my experience when seed tap roots aren’t secure the seed can lift out as the root tries to anchor. Ive seen it a lot in root plugs and a bunch of times in rockwool.
So you just laid the seed on top the coco plug and it sprouted? How thick is the coco disc? And do you think it could be used to go directly into hydroton balls in a RDWC system?
Yes it sprouted. Then i turned it on the tail and kinda made it go into the hole. The whole point of these is anything you want to plant in will work. And there biodegradable. There pretty thin like 1/4" they swell a little. I was hoping they’d get thicker but they work. Yes you can go hydroton or rdwc whatever you want. I start almost all my stuff in cubes or kratkys non circulation hydroponic method. Then to coco or promix.
My next test im using the 2" net pots filled with little rockwool cubes and a seed. I think this will be the faster way to sprout. Or i may sprout then put into the cubes in the cloner.
