    Hydro: Should added water have nutes?

    Both will work, as I have tried both methods. Personally I just add PH adjusted water to my res and I change out my res every 5 days. But that's just me, I think it saves me a little bit of money on Nutes. I guess the proper way to do it is get a TDS / EC meter and measure how strong your res...

    Grow Cabinets?

    I do not think grow cabinets are worth the money. You can spend a fraction of the cost building your own. Part of the fun of growing is designing/building your grow room. But I do know of one guy who bought a couple off of www.supercloset.com. He has no complaints with them
