soil vs coco coir indoors, possible to get as close of a yield as in coco coir?

Would Fox Farm soil yield a decent result as compared to Coco Coir nutrient hand watering? Given the vigilance required to use coco coir and time that I don't have this grow.
Thanks to All

When I first did a grow I tried coco followed by soil and didn't notice any taste, quality or size difference using the same strains, and people called me crazy

Iv trued soil,coco and Hempy buckets...coco if you know how to read your plants and when to water by far the most explosive growth out of the 3...also I’ll tell you from personal experience even in fabric pots you can absolutely over water coco and encounter root rot iv ran into root rot 3 times back to back to back even when running 5ml per gal of 34% h2o2 in my Rez I water seed;kings in 1 gal pots once every 4-7 days then when I pot up at 4 weeks I water once every 3-4 days untill I flip them at week 6-7 from seed then I water every 2 days untill week 3 from flip then it’s once every day and even then some plants get watered every 2 days this is in pure coco..... I’d advise you to get short fat pots instead of deep pots... I pulled 20oz off 4 plants in 3 gal fabric pots harvested at 6 weeks into 12/12 the 3 gal fabric pots get watered every day after 2 weeks of them being in final pots then week3-harvest 2x a day the 5 gal pots just don’t dry out without a crazy long veg...coco is the shit if you fuck up flush boom your golden with soil your 3-5 days behind wondering if you fixed an issue
