Size of Medium (Leca, Diatomiote, Lava, whatever)
What do you guys usually use? In terms of size.
I've noticed a lot of growers use larger sizes of medium, and not to point fingers or anything, but I find smaller works best.
Do you find the capillary action of larger medium is weaker?
And yes, its all relative to growing environment and medium, but without smaller particles, and the recent addition of diatomite (wow, I'm going to try some in it entirely), I wasn't getting enough capillary action to the top. Even for larger rooted plants.
I grow in a 2'x2'x4' greenhouse in my room, with 90% RH, constant air, and I'm ashamed to admit it, white LEDs (yes, I'm changing back. They suuuck).
