Is growing Hydro really a ' good idea'? I don't think it is. I won't correct the first post, thats my english and writing comprehension at its finest moment. I had just smoked a bowl and had two cups of coffee. Its perfectly not correct.

Even in soiless (peat/coco based) you need to PH your nutrient solution. Veg solutions could easily ph at 4 and kill your plant.

Best to check the PH of nutrient solution AT LEAST once to make sure it is within the proper range.

Im on a basic level of hose water and MG. I have not PHed and every leaf on the plant is green 6 weeks into flowering. Checking the PH of your soil/nutes to make sure it is not at a sadistic level is never a bad idea though

MG is a completely different creature.

I gots to see how Chuck Estevez has a 'Sealed' grow room. That would take a spectacular amount of preparation and material. I would copy it if it was in reasonable price. Fully Sealed. You know what would work amazing is a walk in freezer. talking stainless steal and that super foam shit they use.

Say a newbie walks in and is using soiless and decides not to PH due to your advice?
I already posted but let me clarify. I think Soiless grow mediums and hydro is 'Dumb'. As in not a smart way to grow a weed. It is cool to see the hydroponics display at Disney Land Epcot Center. Hydro is a cool space age idea. The 'Future' of agriculture, when all the Earths soil has been ransacked of nutrients and there are 75 billion people clammering about. Go hyrdo then. but we have soil today and soil grow huge plant with dense frosty buds

Not sure if this was said but I cant believe you dont think flushing is important. Especially the final 2 week flush.
You like fruit? Do you like nuts? Do you like grapes? ...lets see what else... Anything you have ever consumed that has grown on a tree or vine or out of the dirt HAS NEVER BEEN FLUSHED. NUTRIENTS DO NOT EFFECT THE FLAVOR, TASTE, OF BUD. That is Genetics

I lined all the walls with styrofoam insulation board, then ran hvac insulation( the space stuff over that and taped and duct mudded the seams. I sealed the doors with freezer door insulation. I pull a negative pressure in my room. i have a ductless a/c. I control every aspect of the environment, that's how a sealed room works.

I'm not even talking about hydro but while we are on the subject, hydro is the most efficient way to grow.

I grow in a soiless medium comprised of peat moss, perlite and lime. Drains very well and is almost impossible to over water. Yet holds moisture for a long time. It is light and airy which allows the roots to grow easier.

You need to smoke some un flushed hydro before you speak. And yes you can tell the difference between heavly feed soil MJ that has not been flushed compaired to stuff that has been flushed. Everyday fruits and Vegetables are not feed like Mj or as heavy.

This thread is all wrong. Period.
I can see this man right now. He is taking a break from a day of shopping for grow equipment. He just bought 8000$ worth of gear from "The Green Hydro Barn" and he is reading Eds and Jorges book as he types. I feel bad for you man. You are like me. NO one can change your mind, you think you got it all figured out. YOU NEED TO FAIL in order to see the light. Its a sad deal though man. 8gs worth of shit sinks most peoples spirits. Go on Bud Trader. Bud Trader is the land of the failed grower. So many guys on their selling whole sets of shit. wasted money on electricity , and chemicals that burned his product and drop Gram prices down to shit.

I cant say I disagree, I find genetics to b a big factor in finsl taste but alwayd find a nice clean ash with a proper flush, not so without. Also the joint tastes good down to the end with a good flush. I must say flavour changes.... seems more flavourful without a flush first couple hits then shit taste like it wasnt flushed:)

HaVe had strains not taste good regardless of flush, even whrn they smelled amazing.
