Hydroton Test Results

Those of you that have experience know that it is dirty and has to be rinsed before use.  Yes, it takes time.  We all want to save time, but as we found out, some time is just well spent.  STG has some great products and we love their hail product for our AeroFlo36 system.  For the PowerGrower and Ebb and Gro systems, Hydroton rocks! (no pun intended). 

The test we conducted on the STG inserts for the Ebb and Gro system proved that Hydroton (the suggested medium for the system) was the better medium.  Plants in the STG inserts didn't grow as fast or as strongly as the ones in the Hydroton.

We will be using Hydroton in the Ebb and Gro and PowerGrower for all future transplants.
