been using the ebb and gro bucket system for a while.. i like it but i feel like changing to soil... been ebb and growing for 3 years so i know what to do im just wonering a few things... i use an powercloner aerocloner and i was wondering if i can just do the clones like that and then just put them in soil (sunshine mix #4 i think)... i was going to put 12 5 gal or 3gal pots under 1000k .. does this all sound right? also im familiar with how to feed for hydro whats the diff withs oil? i know im supposed to keep the moisture good but is there a certain time i can do it at? so so far this is what im thinking altogether..


buckets - 5gal or 3gal buckets with the drain plate on the bottom? or any other suggestoins

soil - sunshine mix #4

cloner - clones coming from hydro drip system mother and cloning in aeroponic powercloner.. then put right into the 5gal buckets with promix and veg'd under 400 watt hps..

look that over and tell me anything im forgetting..

also a big question i had was that does it take longer for soil to gro wthan hydro? before in hydero if the strand said 56 days thats how long it would be flowered for thtne it would be done.. is it the same as dro?
anyone preferably stinky could you tell me what you think i should do to start up soil ? i just want the easiest best way to get going in it without wasting to much time experiementing..
