I second that... without experience... only read.

Anyways, the down side I see to hydro, is the cost to do it right.

I mean, you can put a plant in a bucket of water and watch it grow/die, but, my experience has been, that the more control and the more 'fancy' you want your setup, the more $$$ goes into it.

I haven't grow soil, but for hydro:
pH meter
ppm/tds/ec meter
water pump(s)
air pump(s) + air stones
Build-it your-self PVC growing contraptions


???!?!????---- sorry... got away from the computer, and now I'm lost... hope this helps
