Tinytoon,

I'm curious why you want do grow a mother in DWC? If you need the rapid growth I suppose it makes sense, but if you don't, you're just exposing yourself to more things that can fail. For example, if your power goes out, a mother in soil will be fine for a few days, but in DWC your mother dies. You also have to rely on air pumps, which can fail. Just trying to save you some headache.
