this is my first attempt to grow with bubbleponics... as i have in the past been using soil...
Is Nutrients a must for the water solution.?.?.?

yup your plants can make it for about 2 weeks on tap water alone, from seed. after that you need nutes fer sure.

Bro, nothing grows without being fed.

You got a lot of reading to do.

look here to start:

You must use nutes. As there is no soil, everything the plant needs must be provided in the water.
Too much, then the plants burn and die.
Too little, the plants will starve and die.

I have used off the shelf powdered plant food from Menard's or Walmart.
You need to experiment doing it that way and always start with LOW amounts of nutes and then add more until you learn what the plants need.

Good luck on your grow.

Sure, I guess that your plants might live without nutes, but don't bother.

I rarely feed a plant before week three and then start with half the recommended feeding. The plants just love it and within a week I have ramped up the feeding to close to normal. You will see such a difference in your plants once you start feeding that you would never ever go back to not feeding them.

If you had two reservoirs I would tell you to run a control batch without nutrients and the second batch with nutrients. Once you see the results you will never go back to nutrient free.
