Buy Grodan Rockwool Slab 98 plugs 36/40 mm.

The Grodan Rockwool Slab 98 plugs 36/40 mm. is designed to facilitate the early stages of plant development in hydroponic systems and different propagation methods.

The format corresponds to the Grodan AO 36/40 plugs, characterized by a uniform fiber structure that promotes a balanced distribution of water and nutrients.

Each slab contains 98 plugs of 36 x 36 x 40 mm, offering a practical format for working simultaneously with numerous seeds or cuttings.

Rockwool provides a suitable combination between water retention and air presence in the root zone, two factors especially important during germination and initial root development.

In addition, the firmness of the material facilitates both manual handling and subsequent transplanting.

Once a sufficient root system has developed, each plug can be separated and inserted into a compatible rockwool block, allowing the cycle to continue without removing the roots from the initial medium.

This feature makes the slab a practical option among indoor growing accessories and materials intended for propagation and hydroponics.

Grodan Rockwool Slab 98 plugs 36/40 mm.

The Grodan Rockwool Slab 98 plugs 36/40 mm. belongs to the Grodan AO propagation plug range. The AO 36/40 format is made up of square plugs connected together to form a slab and has individual dimensions of 36 x 36 x 40 mm. Each slab contains a total of 98 units.

The homogeneous structure of the rockwool helps to distribute water, nutrients, and pH value evenly within the plug. This homogeneity allows similar conditions to be maintained between different plants on the same slab, a particularly interesting feature when working with numerous units at the same time.

Grodan manufactures these plugs with a stable fibrous structure and adequate firmness to facilitate handling. The AO format also incorporates a slightly conical base designed to simplify subsequent transplanting. These features make rockwool for germination convenient for both small projects and facilities where organized propagation is needed.

The format can be used with different plants, including vegetables, leafy greens, aromatic herbs, flowers, and other species compatible with hydroponic systems. It also represents an interesting option among indoor growing tools intended to organize the early stages of the plant cycle.

What is the Grodan Rockwool Slab 98 plugs 36/40 mm. for?

The Grodan Rockwool Slab 98 plugs 36/40 mm. is mainly used to germinate seeds and promote the rooting of cuttings. The goal is to provide a stable medium where young roots can develop while maintaining simultaneous access to moisture and oxygen.

An important feature of Grodan rockwool is the balance between water and air. The fiber structure allows moisture to be stored and, at the same time, maintains air spaces around the roots. In addition, the even distribution of water helps reduce differences between the various plugs on the same slab.

The slab also greatly facilitates the organization of seedbeds. With 98 independent plugs, it is possible to work with a large number of plants occupying a small space and keeping each root system separate.

After germination or rooting, the plug can be used as a transition point to the next stage. When the roots show adequate development, each unit can be inserted directly into the hole of a previously conditioned Grodan block. In this way, it is not necessary to remove the plant from the medium where root development began, reducing direct handling of the roots.

How is Grodan Rockwool Slab 98 plugs 36/40 mm. used?

Before placing seeds or cuttings, the Grodan Rockwool Slab 98 plugs 36/40 mm. should be conditioned with water and the solution corresponding to the type of plant and growing system. It is important to achieve uniform hydration of the plugs before starting propagation.

Once the rockwool is hydrated, place a seed in the corresponding hole or carefully insert the cutting. During this stage, it is advisable to maintain appropriate environmental conditions of temperature, humidity, and ventilation, adjusted to the needs of each plant species.

Humidity should be checked periodically. Rockwool needs to remain hydrated, but constant saturation without proper oxygen presence can harm root development. For this reason, watering should be adjusted according to plant consumption, environmental conditions, and the degree of root development.

When the roots have properly colonized the plug and begin to appear on the outer areas, transplanting can be done. Carefully separate the necessary unit and insert the plug directly into the hole of a compatible and previously conditioned Grodan rockwool block. The set can then continue in different hydroponic systems depending on the installation used.

This methodology allows for a smooth transition between germination, propagation, and growth, making the plugs one of the most used indoor growing accessories when working with rockwool.
