WHY VIDAWOOL?
VidaWool vs. Other Rock Wool Media
What's the Difference?
Plug Shape and Insertion Zone
VidaWool plugs are circular for seamless transitioning to grow blocks and come predrilled for rapid, precise seed or clone placement. Other plugs are slit, weakening the plug's structure, which can lead to breakage and material waste.
VidaWool with Hydro-Xtend Plug Shape and Insertion Zone
- Precise seed or clone placement.
- Predrilled hole.
- Greater plant stability.
- Plug shape optimized for root growth and seamless transition.
Other rock wool growing media
- Precut slit in other growing media decreases plant stability and makes plugs prone to breakage.
- Square shape compresses media when transitioning into blocks.
- Plug corners create variation in root growth.
Plug Transitioning
Just pick-and place. That's all it takes to transition a VidaWool plug to a block. VidaWool plugs are round for a perfect fit every time. Other growing media require labor-intensive cutting or scoring before transitioning. Don't hassle with trying to force a square plug into a round hole. Switch to VidaWool.
Other rock wool growing media
- Precise seed or clone placement.
- Predrilled hole.
- Greater plant stability.
- Plug shape optimized for root growth and seamless transition.
Other rock wool growing media
- Other plugs require cutting or ripping before transitioning.
- Square plugs not designed to fit into blocks.
- Requires additional effort to force a square plug into a round hole, compressing surrounding wool and reducing uniformity of the growing media.
