i got a question i got all my dwc shit together and was reading about these neoprene inserts
what the hell are they and are they necessary sorry to use a thread on such a small question but its a need to know type of thing

Ummmm.... Hmmmm.... Good question! How are they s'posed to be used?

I reckon they must not be "necessary", as I am runn'n DWC without a clue as to what you're talk'n about!

Hope that helps!

I believe they are talking about the rubber gromets for the hose fittings going into the buckets so they dont leak.

neoprene inserts are used in aerocloners to hold the cutting freely in the air/water mixture for rooting.

To answer your question as simply as possible, imo I would not use them in DWC at all, in aerocloners they are safe but after the plant develops roots it begins putting off gas’s that needs to escape or could lead to root-rot.

so they basically hold the plant gently over the mist
could they be used to go mediumless dwc
if not how would you hold the plants in bubble field in a dwc

and bzzbob anything i need to know like problems i might encouter or good hints to make thing easier before i set up my dwc

Fetanylking – I have seen people use them for MDWC but I still would not recommend it, just to many foreseeable problems that just imo, oh and btw just set your plants in some good old store bought lava rocks, wash very good before using!! Or hydrogen balls, that will give the roots something to hold on to.
