soil seedling growing faster

  1. high

    i got some hydroponic seedling which are about 1 1/2 week now... they are under a 400w HPS lamp and are getting fed with tap water + some root juice

    i got a soil white widow seedling from one of my friends... its about the same age and never had a lamp / root juice before i put it in my room...

    thing is i have the feeling that its growing faster, probably because it can get some kind of "energy" out of the soil that my plants cant get out of the rockwool (?)

    is everything ok (i though hydros grow faster)? i got alot of fertilizers from rootjuice to topmax.. but i dont think i can start using one of the veg fertilizers right now eh?

    (ill start using better ph water from now on btw)

    thx
     
  2. cause you can't compete with mother nature my friend, organic soil is the only way. ;) or at least semi-organic......shhhhhhhh :D
     
  3. the soil has nutes in it, that's why it's growing better. i hope you're bubbling your tape water
     
  4. bubbling?

    will water like evian help?

    or what can i do?
     
  5. use a air pump with air stone to get chlorine out of the water and increase the oxygen in the water
    you can use distilled water of any brand
