Your instincts serve You well ...keep trusting them ( "read,ask,learn, and verify" still, but this is a good start) now for the funnest question one grower can ask another .."whatcha growin ?" ( or in this case want to grow ) LOL I signed.. "out of the night" was supposed to be "out for the night" musta been good smoke, if thought I was Batman, sheesh ... wharf
about how long does it take to grow with soil? and how long does it take to grow hydroponically? and do you yield more with soil or hydro?
The 8 pack runs best by itself. If your gonna do a bigger crop, ebb might be your best bet. More pots. Cheaper then a waterfarm.
