General Hydroponics Rapid Rooter Replacement Plugs, Bag of 50

Product Information

The success rate of seedlings depends on the user processes you follow to use the formula. For expert gardeners, this uses guidelines might look dumb but let’s have a discussion for beginners who don’t know how to use rapid rooter and root riot. And also frequent users can realize if there are any changes or not. But there is no difference between using both of the plugs. Here is the process of using the plugs.

When all of the cuttings have been added to the plugs, place the 50-cell tray under appropriate lighting and wait for the root systems to manifest. Example of cannabis seedlings growing in coco coir, about to get seedling-strength nutrient water. If they were in soil, I would give plain water for the first few weeks.

Here are those seedlings about 2 days later. Be extra careful when removing the paper towels. Don’t let the seeds roll around or you won’t know which is which. This is when you’ll be glad you used cheap paper towels, as they are much easier to peel off without disturbing your seedlings. If you have a top-feed, place the tube near the bottom of the net pot so the water isn’t soaking the seedling’s roots. You just want water dripping out the bottom so the root can use it for oxygen and water until it’s fully established in the reservoir. Moisture Retention – They help create a consistently moist environment around plant cuttings or seeds.

That’s it! You’ve gone from tiny seeds to thriving hydroponic plants, all thanks to those trusty Rapid Rooter plugs. Happy growing! Root Riot Plugs – An alternative to Rapid Rooter There’s good reason to believe that hydro plants would grow better with a cool reservoir. For example, the bad microorganisms that make root rot don’t survive well at lower temperatures. Additionally, water can physically hold more oxygen at lower temperatures, which seems like it would be great for faster plant growth. Because of this, lots of growers will AC their room to 60°F, and/or get a water chiller to cool their water reservoir to a similar temperature.Rapid rooter is only for hydroponic plants’ propagation systems. You can’t use it in the soil directly. Rapid Rooter Plugs come in bags of 50 and above, and are a crowd favorite among hydroponics growers because they are straightforward, easy to use, and just plain work on most crops.
