A plant needs nutrients.. its clearly had nutrients in the soil. I dont really understand this.. its like trying to raise a new born and not feed it.. it will just die. A plant needs to nutrients to survive.. im confused. Are you just saying, you want to see what happens if you grow it in some soil (with nutes) and not feed anything additional? I dont get it man.. like.. why? All you are determining is how many nutee are in the medium.. once your plant starts dying, you can say.. welp.. guess she used up all the nutes! Are you just lazy? How long well she last in some soil.. hmmm .. i dont get it lol
