    It's horses for courses mate.... if hydro doesn't work for you, go for soil.

    I'd love to have a crack at hydro but just don't have the means just now, seriously considering handwatering coco though.
    I notice the difference between hydro and soil grown bud and imo soil gives the best taste but that's just my opinion.
    Everyone i know that does hydro started off in soil and none would go back to it.
    As Grub says, it's horses for courses.

    Ive done soil,oxypots,wilmas,and hand water coco and autopots.
    I like to mess around with diferent methods.
    Its just a hobby I suppose and now Ive gone over to growing all sort like peppers,tomatoes ect.
    I got foot long buds off my 1st bucket grow but had nothing but problems there after.
    My soil grow was good with a nice white widow grow.
    Wilma was shit for me as they stretched too much but that was my error with grow room control.
    Auto pots are ok ish but attention to light distance needs to be watched in my opinion.
    Hand water in coco would be a happy medium to be honest and I like how quickly it can respond where soil wont but it feels like soil if you hand water.
    Autopots allow you to get off on holiday for a week too.
    Just dont go for massive pots or veg times and choose a breed that dont grow like a fucking fur tree lol.
    Delahaze for example in coco you need to keep the light just close enough otherwise they go high.
    Im talking under a 400w hps.
    Just enjoy the experience in whatever you choose keep temps down and remember air flow if fucking King Queen and fucking Country lol.
    As for taste I find you just have to cure for longer in hydro if you want taste which wont be a problem if its percy.
