I have been checking out your grows. Props to you!!! I did the hydro thing for 3 grows and liked it but I have other things I like to do and baby sitting the reservoirs just wasn't going to work out any longer. I keep wanting to set up again because I love the fast growth but camping, fishing and wheeling have to be done!!I use mine differently. No soil- ornamental rocks + lava rocks on the bottom + hydro. This method lets me feed small amounts every 45 minutes, and my plants love it
Check out my grow for details of what I use, and why
Next summer I am going to dable some more with my Aquaponic setup that uses my pond for the water source. I had great success with tomatoes and hot peppers this last summer. The issues I forsee are not being able to add nutes. Hopefully the Hydroton won't completely die this winter since it took half of the summer to grow its microbes and start growing good.
