FAQ

Q: What does "Conditioning Rockwool" mean? 
A: The term "condition" in the context of gardening and hydroponics typically refers to preparing a growing medium to ensure it is ready for planting. This can involve adjusting the pH, soaking the medium to ensure it is fully saturated, and removing any potential contaminants. However, one of the advantages of VidaWool® is its ease of use and readiness right out of the box, which means that this conditioning process is significantly simplified or may not be necessary at all.

Q: Are Rockwool and Mineral Wool the same? 
A: Often used interchangeably in the horticulture industry but technically different. Rockwool is primarily made from Basalt and Limestone, melted at high temps, and spun into fibers, while mineral wool can be made from a variety of materials, including basalt rock, slag (byproduct of metal smelting) and other minerals.
