Why do you think hydro tomatos cost three times that of "ordinary" tomatos???
Because ordinary tomatos taste like crap. They are mass produced tomatos grown on land that has been stripped of natural fertilizers and most are chemically fertilized and sprayed with pestisides. I have grown tomatos hyrdoponically and the ones from my garden outside always taste so much better. Compare organic soil grown to hydro. I'd take the organic ones for flavor and taste anyday.
