Looks good man! I'm not some anit-hydro guy in all actuality. I just like playin. Hydro just trips me out some. Maybe it's scary to me! I do know they grow faster under Hydro... I'm gonna give it a shot!

I hear soil has better taste but hydro grows faster.. I stick with the old fashion way plus its natural, anything natural is bound to be better just look at organic food and regular you can tell the difference

This is my first soil grow so I can't comment on the taste , but I read the same thing too. Soil is supposed to give the plants a better taste, but what I can say from experience is that hydro does make ur plants grow way faster than soil would. I had an aerogarden and my plant would grow 2-3 inches a day sometimes and this was before flower! So I def believe the hype about hydro.. and when I get the money I will prob buy a hydroponic system. But right noow I'm still a little confused on the different types of hydro set ups, like aeroponiic, bubbleponic, dwc , wick , ebb & flow, drip system or n.f.t. nutrient film technique . Been doin.g my research lately so I can figure out exactly what is the difference between all of these systems, which one will be the easiest to maintain and the least expensive .

Yo Sims, I would think either the flood and drain, or the DWC would be the easiest and less to maintain ya know? My boy built a Aeroponic system a month or two ago. Jus the Walmart resevior, EZ Cloners sprayers, a submersible pump, net pots, and some hydroton!! Those bitches passed up the soil hella fast!! Already in flower looking lovely!! Im sticking with my soil till I get it all dialed in, then mybe experiment with the Hydro!
