Does anyone know if its possible to seperate the other crap in hot hands from the vermeculite? I need the iron power and vermeculite for a science project and my parents would never let me buy chemicals that they didnt understand.
See, this would be a case of one of those terrible transcription and translation errors you're continuously listening to approximately. people who trangressed the regulations did no longer get stoned, they have been given sconed. They have been compelled to devour extremely dry, blandish baked products with out the income of clotted cream, jam or tea with which to bathe it down. an exceedingly fiendish punishment. Mwahahahahahaha!
You can consult a garden store for the best answer
Tomatoes are the ones most often grown hydroponically. I'm sure there are others.
Radishes would be my guess, or weeds.
Potatoes are indeed very easy to grow in this medium. Even in conventional gardening, you can grow them in something as thin as hay. With perlite and vermiculite, you should yield some pretty decent sized potatoes. Any root crop such as the aforementioned radishes and also carrots will do great in this loose medium. This is true because the loose medium allows for a larger crop, but also because the roots benefit tremendously from the aeration. Tomatoes and vine crops (zucchini, cucumbers, etc) would do excellent with a drip system, but it also depends on the container and system you use. Herbs will grow in just about any hydroponic system and do very well.
