I have been growing in soil but I want to try hydro. I hear horror stories about plants dying quickly when things go wrong. I was wondering if I use a soiless medium with a nylon wick going into the bottom of the pot using a capillary suction how it would work. Would it work as well as one which flooded the plants at set intervals? What would be a good soilless mixture to use with a wick system?\
