Product Introduction

Rock wool cultivation is a cultivation technique that involves planting plants in rock wool that has been pre-prepared. Honghai rock wool is made by melting 60% gabbro, 20% limestone and 20% coke at a high temperature of 1600℃. The mixture is sprayed into fibers with a diameter of 0.005mm and then pressed into blocks, with a weight of 77-80kg/㎡. It is an inorganic solid substrate.

Advantages of Rockwool in Agricultural Hydroponics

·Fewer pests and diseases, no soil-borne replant failure, and the substrate can be recycled.  

·Pin-point control of plant growth lifts yield and quality, boosting farm profits.  

·Higher water- and nutrient-use efficiency; eco-friendly and gentle on the environment.  

·Light weight, high porosity, strong water retention—easy to handle and transport.  

·Non-toxic and contaminant-free; usable where arable soil is scarce, raising land use and crop diversity.

Applications of Hydroponic Rockwool Cubes

Fruit & Vegetable Cultivation

In the Netherlands and other Western countries, rock-wool culture is widelyused for fruit-bearing and leafy vegetables under protected cultivation.Within this system, light, temperature, water and nutrients are suppliedquickly, rationally and in balance, so yields are higher than in soil. Onaverage, crop output more than doubles, and for some species it canincrease more than tenfold.

Rice, Flower& Medicinal Crop Cultivation

In China the substrate is already used for crop seedling production, flowergrowing and medicinal-plant cultivation; measurements show that duringthe rice nursery stage the available-silicon content of the inorganic fibermedium exceeds 500 mg kg², more than ten times that of ordinary soiland highly beneficial to rice growth and development.

Medical Cannabis Cultivation

As Western countries legalize and reulate cannabis cultivation. rockewoothas becomethe substrate of choicefor soiless medical-marluana production
1.0verseas,rockwool is the first choice for soilless cannabis cultivation because its high water-holding capacity aows nutrient solution to be recycledreducing pollution of soil and water bodies,
2.Rockewool is a porous,filbrous solid substrate that roots easily penetrate;it is well-aerated, highly water-retentive, soft and uniform-creating idealconditions for root growth.

 

 

 

Hydroponic rock wool is the core matrix of hydroponics. Its porous structure balances water retention and air permeability, fixes the root system to prevent root rot, is sterile and easy to disinfect, is suitable for multiple crops, simplifies water and fertilizer regulation, and facilitates clean and efficient planting.
