Can I add ewc to soiless mix to be used with GH floraseries

It’s not uncommon at all for people to add worm castings to peat and perlite mixes or any other mix and use salts.

Its like adding that great white stuff or any of those mycorrhiza products that are natural and commonly used with salts.

Let’s all be civil and not silly.

Very few bagged potting mixes contain this stuff:

Your thread starts off with the definition being “organic matter”. Hydroponics could give a fuck about organic matter. Get it through your tiny little head, hydroponics and organics are not the same thing. Really there’s not much to argue about as it’s simple, soil and organic are NOT hydroponic, very easy for anyone but a retard to see.

I never said that soil and hydroponics are the same thing. What are you off on anyway? Go smoke a joint dude, and pipe down. I grow both organically and also hydroponically.

Looks like a good soil-type mix. I'm not really interested in debating semantics all day though. I've already been through that in Soil Science classes.
I understand what you're saying. The traditional definition of soil would be what you find outside in nature. Again....semantics. I grow in no till. Which is basically the same way nature does it. Minus the clay and sand, I pretty much grow in soil.

I think my only real point is how blurry the lines really are. Someone wants to say that "soil-less" has to mean hydroponics. Others feel that soil needs to be devoid of synthetic ferts. I disagree with both assertions. There is a happy marriage to be found between both. Purists are fine though too, if that's your thing, I respect that. Personally I put organics in my hydro, and synthetics in my "soil". I'm a bastard that way.

How do you explain the phenomenon know as aquaponics and bioponics? The microbial loop only works with organics, and those two hydroponic methods.

Coco and peat are universal. Hydro/organic, it all comes down to how the plant will obtain the pure for of needed elements. Salts are immediate, organic is and isn't. Depends on the source of organic nutrient, dry or liquid.

Microbes have a place in hydroponics and can be very beneficial, but not without some sort of media for the roots. Unlike (R)DWC or HPA. I've seen nice plants in semi organic NFT tho.

I don’t believe I said they were the same thing either. Not off on anything, whatever.

I was banned from another site when I questioned a mod that said all bagged soil is soilless, :lol:. You can't fix stupid. :wall:
Clearly you can't, since you didn't learn from that mod who banned you, whom was also saying the same thing that I am about "soil". Hmm, maybe we're seeing a pattern here folks.
