His point was that's typically an organic situation. Liquid nutrients are usually already broken down. If not our hydro plants would be in trouble.

So when you add mycorrhizal baceria you see no benefit in hydroponics?

Well considering your limping your current grow to the finish line, and had to ask “how much longer” in week 5? Just a thought?

I didn't ask how much longer I stayed at about 4 to 5 weeks and you all said about 6 but I think you all are wrong..

I'm not saying there are no benefits, but hydro nutrients are typically ready to be used by the plants. The idea of cleaning up the water and balancing the nutrients is pretty big if possible though.

Also the idea of never doing water changes and never having the fear of root rot in dwc is pretty significant as well.

That's basically what I meant. There are plenty of products to prevent root rot though.

This is my biggest point. It’ll be a huge factor in time and energy.

Awwww another muffin hurt when he hears what he doesn’t want to hear? Typical

Be sure to tag me when you get this off the ground, as myself and thousands of other coco growers would love to save money on nutes and waste.

Weird after decades of coco growers no one has done this yet, wonder why not?

So do you plan on buying dosers to adjust all your NPK and ph fluctuations? That can get very pricey in itself to my knowledge.

THis is the biggest issue I see. You can get bacteria to eat nutrients to get them to level out, but that level would be at a reduced EC, so you would have to add nutrients. You would need the bacteria to create nutrients as well as strip them for this to be worthwhile.

I'm doing just fine. Your grow however, is just cute. You know all those small plants in a sog trying to equal the same thing as 1 plant.
