Lookin good man you might just sway me over from bubbleponics to aeroponics lol. Can't wait to see them flower. Thanks for sharing!
Yea dude soil is the easiest way to go for moms. Its simply a hastle building a hydro unit for a single mom. (maybe if you had 4 or 5)...and you cant keep it with the crop due to light scedules. Lastly, you probably wont be taking too many clones from your mom very often so they wont need the extra growth hyrdo has to offer.
Rocks will work..but i personally pour about a half inch layer of vermiculite on the bottom of my soil pots and then mix some in with the medium.
much love

Thanks for the feedback. I am planning on having about 5 moms in the same room as my clones or should I seperate the room into 2 since the clones need 24 hr florescents right, and the moms will be in a 18/6 schedule, can I use a florescent for my moms aswell?
So what do you guys think is better for me to have a aero setup in a 40 gal container with 2 moms in there so a total of 3 containers with 6-7 moms. Or 6-7 5 gal buckets of dirt?
I have also been reading some guy saying that the dual container doesent work as well I dont understand why it seems to me that the dual container would work better since the pump and resovoir would be below the roots so it would prevent clogging problems when the roots get huge

......well that is very cool you can root clones, veg, then flower without ever creating any stress on those girls from moving them!
I didn't realize Earl did it that way........and that system is the greatest!
Well, I wish you the very best through this grow!! Keep up the awesome pics!!
