VidaWool. Cultivate With Confidence

VidaWool blocks provide the space and uniform water and nutrient distribution they need to continue thriving in their second stage of life.

Equipped with a UV-protection liner and Hydro-Xtend™ water dispersion technology, VidaWool blocks are intelligently designed to deliver healthy, even root zones and consistent crop performance. Mineral wool growing media helps to give more steerability to the grower and eliminates the messy, time-consuming processes of other growing media, like filling pots and mixing materials.

Applications

VidaWool blocks are ideal for cultivation enterprises looking for reliable, repeatable, and efficient growing media solutions. VidaWool blocks, starter plugs, and slabs are designed to work as a system, for quick transplantation between growth stages that reduces error and guesswork.

User Guide for VidaWool Blocks

VidaWool performance is validated by third-party experts, that blocks perform as expected during the vital second phase of plant growth. The team of scientists and technicians behind VidaWool have developed these best practices for using your VidaWool blocks.

Store

VidaWool blocks do not need to be housed in a climate-controlled environment but should be kept dry until use. Store pallets no more than two high to avoid damage.

Saturate and condition

Saturate blocks by submerging for up to 1 minute in a nutrient solution adjusted to a pH of 5.5–6.0. As an alternative, spray with the nutrient solution until the entire block is completely saturated. Allow the blocks to drain for a couple of seconds before positioning them on your growing surface.

Pick and place VidaWool starter plugs directly into the block. No added force or shaping is required.
