Topped 2 days ago and she's had no problems, but not an auto so no worries on time, it's just fun manipulating her and seeing how she reacts. Which has been very good so far(original amnesia)I think the dwc makes a huge difference in recovery time.
Lol not a man..but anyways when I started buying all the stuff, the ppl at the hydro store kept insisting on soil but as I had already purchased most of the set up I stuck with dwc, it's a little more work but it definitely pays off, I topped a few of my girls and even the next day they were exploding with new growth. Dwc is totally worth it. Besides soil is so messy, and water is free. ( practically)
