Grow space too hot for hydro 79.

"z7, hydroguard, aquashield" and all those would work well keep the pythium a side.
Its not about if you gonna fail at growing it. Its about the quality of the plant.
And don't misunderstand me with the quality of the product.

If you grow at hot environment grow in medium, even solo perlite or coco coir.
Would give you amazing results.

DWC would give you good results only if you have everything at optimal.

(

DWC would give you good results only if you have everything at optimal) I agree with that. z7 has widened the range for me.

I do not recommend growing that hot. But not because of the quality of the plant. That has not suffer at all for me. But the plants do get more shocking at higher temps. Some strains do much better at it then other too. My SSH does not like it and my WWxBB loves it. In the summer I only grow mid sizes plants. That also seemed to help.

I spent two years working it all out. After growing for decades in dirt. Both inside and out.

Yes it is easier at those temps to grow in dirt.

But then your growing in dirt and it would have nothing to do with this thread.

i wrapped house insulation around my bucket and just use frozen water bottles the insulation works well with the bottles

All I say is advice. Its all about the oxygen available to the roots.
I can tell you so far i had best results in perlite itself. Which is also hydro but a medium not dwc.
I feed, dry, feed, dry, repeat. I flush my plant once a week. The drying is what boost the metabolism.
And especially, flush, dry, feed, is what makes the plant explode.

Also you try comparing two different genetics and how they perform.
But of coarse the SSH will outgrow the sativa.

Have you tried testing same genetics and how would they perform in different mediums instead?

The reason I run dwc is because I have one year old short flowering sativa monster, which i reveg after harvest all the time. The dwc does not limit the root growth and I don't need to transplant every run. If i have to kill my plant after each run i'd go with perlite.

A soil in perlite mixture can be used as a pH buffer as well as it is holding salts therefore you wont need to feed it every water and will save you money on nutrients. The reason perlite outgrows the perlite/soil mixture is because it dries out faster (more oxygen).

The foods we eat on everyday basis has many cancer causing agents involved.
All the packaged things are full of stabilizers, our tomatoes from the supermatket being grown with fertilizers, the meat we eat full of hormones.
I've done once fully organic run. The smoke were amazing but the quantity very low.
Since where I live i'm somehow limited per plants I can grow. I choose to use nutes.
On the other hand I don't feed the hydrostore. I find a chemical source and mix my own nutes.
It all comes down to proper curing.

Grow your own food, I do , just got done planting my fall harvest, no more GMO's or cancer causing pesticides/fertilizers used if you do it yourself

I have a small organic garden. I have tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, watermelons, salads. I have grapes and many types of berries. I also have an orange tree, lemon tree, almond tree and another one I don't know how its called.
But the garden can't feed me trough all the time.
