- When you’re ready for planting, cut drainage slits in the bottom of the slabs to prevent over-watering, then place your plants’ grow blocks directly onto the pre-cut squares.
- As your fertigation system circulates nutrients and water to your plants, RedRock’s specialized wetting agent will deliver it evenly throughout your plants’ root zone.
