What Are Growing Cubes?

What are growing cubes?

Grow cubes are small cubes made from various materials that are used as a growing medium in hydroponic and aeroponic systems.

Grow cubes can be divided into two modes to provide support for plants.
   

     The first is nutritious. they provide nutrients and support for plant growth while allowing for proper water and oxygen penetration to the roots.Some common materials used to make grow cubes include rockwool, coconut coir, peat moss, and perlite. They are commonly used in commercial and home-based hydroponic gardens.

    The second is that without nutrition, they only provide space for the development of plant roots. Without any bacteria, it is not easy to make plants sick, such as Tenlead's Hydronic Planting Cubes, sponges, oasis cubes, etc

      2:Soak the growing cubes and seeds naturally and fully

     3:Cover the growing cubes until the seeds germinate with out watering

     4:After the seeds germinating, expose the seeds in sufficient light and water them moderately. Nutrient solution can be added three days after germination, and the EC value should be adjusted to 800-1000us/cm

     5:When the rhizomes of the seedlings are strong enough, it can betransplanted to the planting trough. In general, the seedlings are strong  enough to transplant after 4 leaves grow.
