Hi,

When a plants roots are coming out of the rockwool how deep into coco should I bury the rockwool cube? Should some of the exposed stem by buried?

Thanks in advance.

It’s best not to bury the stem unless the stem is very long, then it’s ok. The stem will grow roots if you do that.

I would actually leave the Rockwool exposed to the air to aid it in drying out

I don’t use rockwool but I use starter plugs, I just leave the top flush with the surface of the coco. Only thing I can recommend is be easy watering around it at first and until you get a good root base I have been in a hurry and blew my starter plug out of the coco a bit
