I don't know. In my opinion hydro is an expensive and over complicated way to grow a plant. Mother nature has done just fine with soil for quite a long time.
I agree for the most part. Its just something new to try. If you know what youre doing you can grow some amazing plants. Some growers swear by hydro. Ive heard that hydro peppers can be hotter. Hydro has its pros and cons just like everything else. I think its cool to see the root ball developing
I always thought hydro was an overly-laborious method, until I tried it myself. Wayyy less work than my soil plants. I'll get back to you on if they're "hotter" when they fruit LOL
