we took several of our clones that have been vegging for 2 weeks in 1 gallon round containers with peat/perlite medium over to a friend for space and light issues. he has a flood and drain system. we have square 1.5 gal containers filled 3 or 4 inches with a high silica hydro growing medium, and have then placed the round containers inside of the square containers where the bottom of the round container( that the plant has been growing in) is resting on the top of the hydro medium. our hopes are that by flooding the hydro medium with a set schedule, the roots will grow down and out of the peat/perlite medium and its container into the hydro rocks.

will this work?
