dwc coolers work great guys and you could probably do organic hydro....a real organic nute line would be biobizz its omri and its good.....i think if you did dwc tea's and inoculated your hydroton with zho it would work out fine...personally i use H&G nutrients and when i went full hydro people...

i've used the smart pots 5 gallon , but with coco it seemed to raise humidity to much ...i do think their the best for soil though but thats just an opinion....i'll tell you one thing though....a 20 gallon smart pot is the best way to hydrate a brick of coco ..i strain my coco this way and use...
