Idk about you guys but after i switched to dry organics, life got incredibly boring really fast lol. I dont see how it gets any easier then water every 4 days. Dwc is cool and all, but your gonna be spending time in there every day lol you gotta be a quick learner if you want to dial it all down one time.

Hand watering , root balls/old soil, and deficiencies., cost of soil and organic material , less yield ?

settle down there fellers. TWS knows his shit, but neither one of you are very good at forum arguing - holy shit it's not even pg13 in here :(

I suggest promix bx with a litte perlite and a fair amount of vermiculite - to smooth out the texture. This is a soilless that doesn't requiring ph-ing, match this with dyna gro foliage pro and protekt for an easy grow and great harvest (only need those two bottles for all of veg and flower). If you're getting a little frisky then add some floralicious plus during flower @ 1ml/gallon

Yea and put them on a flood table in smart pots and your hands free.

no space for me and no to smart pots, therefore - without a flood table or automatic watering somehow then fuck fabric pots...i have to water every fucking day even with added vermiculite to promix bx(the kind everyone says is bad for our kind of girls because it retains too much moisture!!!)

There is no need for chillers on flood tables or ebb n grow.
Sure seems to help mine but their totes, not tables. Until I got temps down in Res I got rot. Now they run trouble free. Perhaps it's not the temps that helped though, something did lol. And yes should have clarified, flooded root zone systems lol.

Could be the areiation that the chiller pump is providing ?
Could be but pretty sure they get lots of air from the air. The roots just hang there. I really have no fucking clue lol. Took two months to solve and the only thing that seemed to help stop it cold (hehe) was cold Res water. But again I'm just speculating as I have no DO meter.

So your roots are constantly in water ? Because if that's the case temps certainly matter.

No not at all, one setup is sprayers and one is a flood and drain, both had rot for the first time in 3-4 years so it came from some thing. The sprayers drain constantly and the flooded one is on a 5 min cycle every 45 min but that changes. Tried h2o2, microbe lift, bleach, then the chiller and off they went, and now their too fucking big lol, had to start cropping last week :(.

Barring that the easiest way is to dig a hole in the back yard, fill it full of compost and worms and plant a seed. :) but that's the easiest way to get busted here as well lol

Every setup has its pros and cons. I've been known to dabble with soil indoors. Not my go to medium, but hella fucking Easy! Start with just water, than you start feeding when they need it.
But then you get the "why use soil if your going to be feeding it synthetics?" To that, I say, mind your own fucking business! It works fantastic;-)
