That's the same thing the guy at the Hydro shop told me when i first looked into leaving soil. Wasn't ready to go that advanced so I created six (1gal) bubble buckets and did'em for all for under $30.00, not counting pumps.
seldomBLUE Reviewed by seldomBLUE on . I am soo done with hydro! For now. It's just too damn hot in Texas. Brown roots, wilting leaves and no way to cool. My bubble buckets boil and my NF system cooks. Fluid temp usually reads at a nice 30.5 deg C. I don't know what that is in F but it was pretty warm so i guess the brown roots continue to cook. I'm able to keep my outdoor flwr room around 88F with lights out during the day and around 81 during 12 on cycle at night. Soil will do a better job for the weather we have here. I'm sure i'll have to keep a closer eye out Rating: 5
