I think you may be able to do that. but I have no idea about hydroponic growing, sorry. G/L
No problem.
I speak hydro.:)
Get a 5 gallon bucket with a lid.
Cut a hole in the lid to accommodate your plants container.
Leave the dirt in the container
Fill the bucket with nuted water to about 2 inches from the bottom of your container and drop in an airstone.
The bubbles will splash the bottom and the roots will descend into the bucket.
No transplant shock at all.

Works a treat.

What all nutes an water conditioners will I need for the change over all I have is stuff for soil at the moment
I've been using Dyna-grow for veg, and Dyna-bloom for flowering.
Dunno if it's tits, but it seems adequate to the task.
Just keep an eye on the PH near the end of life, and it's a no-brainer way to grow.
Tip:
When I buy the liquid nutes I also buy some distilled water.
I split a bottle into 2 jugs and mix 50:50 with the water.
Then use twice as much as the bottle calls for.
It keeps the nutes from crystallizing before they are used up.
Where can I get that thing that makes the bubbles from a hydroponics system's an what is it called
It's called an air pump.
You can overpay at an aquarium store or nursery.
But, mo' betta go to wally word or search e-bay.
They are about $10.
Don't forget to buy some tubing.
The little airstone is optional.
A rubber band and a weight will work just as well.
Bigger bubbles are noisier, but there are no fish to annoy, and bigger bubbles are mo' betta splashers.
It's the splash of bursting bubbles that does the aerating.
Grow on.
