I'd want to have about ten or so grows under my belt before I tried hydro...but it does seem like a shit load of micromanaging, doesn't it?

I do soil. I want to go hydro. You never have to worry about feeding them wrong. Keep an eye on your levels and your good....like set it and forget it.
I get sick of having to get rid of all my soil after each grow.

My brother and I grow. I have always used soil and him too. Then he dipped into hydro. He bought a real basic system, spent about $250. He has to buy his nutrients and coconut stuff...I have to buy soil and rocks and nutes. The cost works out to be the same.
His grows are better than mine, by far. I think it is because his nutes are so controlled. When I went to Md. to visit him I really looked at his set up and it is simple as hell. All his nutes are basically in a 10 gal rubbermaid container. He uses a test kit to make sure they are balanced and if their not he just adds what it needs. He never directly waters his plants, they are fed by a tube running from the rubbermaid container to his pots. It is working all on gravity. Very simple. I am going to give it try. If my brother can do it I know anyone can.
I am sick of the soil...if it weren't for the soil I would be cool.
