Man I can't say enough about growing hempy. I've done soil and have a decent Power grow hydro system I used one time. Hempy is easy and you will save on nutes. I usually only mix a half gallon at a time for 1 plant autos, and they don't get that big anyway. But even if your trying to grow a tree I can't see using more than a gallon at a time. When I feed I usually do about 1/3 of my mix over several hours to let it wick up. Otherwise you're just draining nutes out the hole, which is a good thing if your flushing with ph'ed water. With hydro I remember having to adjust ph every day. Which ain't bad, just easier in the hempy. You could do the same hempy with a ten gallon pot.
P.S. You can use hempy over and over again with an 80-20 perlite to vermiculite. But, I have some friends who have an outdoor hydro veg garden and they just use 100% perlite. I am using MG products, I just did a really good flush before I planted to dilute out some of the nutes they have. Of course it would be nice to get larger perlite. And just use a regular 5 gallon bucket with a hole 2 inches from the bottom like everyone else. Just really easy to do hempy. Still have to ph 5.8-6 when you feed water or feed water water.
