I'll be watching this log. There are a few benefits of doing hydro/aeroponics that I would like to take advantage of; but I'm worried about some things that a medium will take care of for you. Such as the temperature of the root area; natural buffering, and PH control.

I'm wary of hydro mostly because of the level of detail you have to pay attention to your resevoir. Granted probably checking the res once a day would be enough; but I'd be worried I'd screw something up.

In either case I'm going to stay tuned to see how well it turns out. If it looks like it's going well then I may bite the bullet. It would be nice to get rid of the cost of a substrate. In addition to being able to accurately tell how much your plants are eating (PPM in res) and the accelerated growth involved in hydro.
