yes, the roots dangle in the water all the time. But the water is heavily oxygenated (a lot of bubblers/aerostones). I think this is one of hydro's great benefits - no need to worry about over/under-watering (provided you are using aero/DWC).
Have you done both? Soil and hydro? If so which one did you like better, and get the best results outta?

just hydro so far. though i can see soil being very appealing.
I like it so far, as for the problems I'm having wit my biggest plant right now. Its got me stumped man.. i thought I figured all teh probs out, but some of her leaves are still like folded in n hanging. drooping stem on those leafs. Its weird.

every time i change my system/grow room i seem to create more problems for myself. But with every change comes a bit more knowledge. eventually i'll get my hands dirty and give soil a whirl.

From what I've seen, DWC and aero bring the largest yields. Soil, with some organic nutes, brings about a very earthy smoke.

Proper drying and curing will bring about awesome bud either way.

email is right, the roots have a lot of oxygen from either air-stones or H2O2. In a pure aero system the roots are sprayed with nute mixes while suspended in air, provided there is a sealed container for them that is light-proof (opaque).

I've got a simple idea for an aero system.. I'll give it a go when the funds allow.

Updates later on tonight!!!

:peace:

WOW! I just read everything and man you've done an INCREDIBLE job, as for the aero and DWC I built an aero system out of 2 5 gallon buckets one on top of the other and worked extremely well until my uncle cut off my power ( BASTARD) 4 in one 5 gallon worked well. 10 days from sprout 4 inches tall. I loved it. That was my second stealth. My first was built in a Subwoofer Box. I Love the bushyness you have. I can't wait to hear that yeild.:hump:
My Moms and I are starting a Nice rubbermaid aero system.
System:
4 - rubbermaid Bins
8 Babies each, 32 total

BC Bloom
BC Boost
6x6x8' Room
2x HPS 400w....or..... (ever heard of these) PLL Fluro's. YEA FOR ALL STAGES.

HPS=Heat=Fans=Lots of POWER= High Energy Costs!
PLL's=No Heat=limited fans= really LOW power= Low energy Costs.
Check these out. PLL Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs
Tell me what you think of my 3rd setup goin bigger
.:Lucky:.:peace:

I bet most of you realize since I haven't been around something big must have happened.

Well, yes.. in a way.

In other words, there is nothing more going on, sadly. Anyone want some of my stuff?

Right now I'm wanting to get rid of my 4' T5 light and my tent.

Get at me.
