  7. Rock Wool • Very popular medium made from melting igneous rock and dripping it onto a spinning disk to dry (like cotton candy). It's readily available but somewhat dirty and it produces a dust when first setting it up that cannot be something you want to breath. It also comes in grow cube form.

  8. Hygromite • A silica based mineral rock that was kiln dried into small stone size pebbles. It is 100% organic and not too expensive but, as a downside, must be rinsed to clean the constant dust it erodes.

  9. Grow Cubes • with names like Oasis, Jiffy 7 or Jiffy 9 these are made from compressed fibers of cocoa, wood, peat or rockwool just to name a few. They have excellant water retention and are used for propagating seedlings from seeds. The seedling and the entire cube can be easily dropped into a hydroponics system as is when ready.
