It will work, but its not hydroponics.

Any time you grow in soil, you are not using hydropincs.

thanks friends for the help!

ive decided to go hydroponics all the way but i need suggestions on nutrients..

i would like to know which nutrients i should provide throughtout the life span of a plant.

i know each growth stage requires a majority of the three main nutrients but i have no idea what to feed it and when

suggestions from experienced growers would be appreciated.

thanks

Try General Hydroponics 3 part nutes (GH3 nutes) you can get it at your local hydro store.

thanks Ganjagoddess.

will this be a good working nutrient throughout the life span or will i need to buy other nutrients to accommodate each growth stage??

GH3 will go all the way through both stages of growing, you just adjust the amount of each of the three different types amounts for each stage of growth.

When you get it at the hydro store, make sure they give you a feeding schedule for it.

Cheers!

I used plant spikes when I used to grow outside. And the blue shit you mix in water. I grew some 5 footers.

Harsh taste though. I tried it on my hydro tank and over nuted my babies almost killed them. So I use AN now.
