peat moss as a medium

[lowrydergrower775]

yes ive heard of people growing clones in perlite/vermilicute but ive read on a couple other forums of people using just peat moss as a medium to grow clones of course you would have to add nutes lol but would this be possible and is it a good or bad idea?lol i grow with foxfarm so lol im just high and reading around and wondering thanks everybody

yeah its possible. ive acually thought about doing it myself, its kinda hydroponic in a way because the plants get all their nutes from the water. but youd probably get better results with a better soil. like this one. http://www.hydroponics.net/i/133156

Peat Moss is acidic, so I wouldn't reccomending using it alone especially on baby clones.

I just grew some seedlings in it and it didn't go so well. I wouldn't do it again.

my first attempt was also grown in some seedling starter soil that was 90% peat moss, weird huh, anyways - they sprouted and never got much further than that
