Ola amigos. I'm nearing that point many of us have come to when reading and thinking about it take a back seat to doing and learning. I've put a lot of thought into this and one thing in particular I'm having a little trouble deciding on is one I'm sure has been asked a million times around here -- soil or hydro?
At first I had myself thinking soil, no question, but now I'm giving real consideration to a hydro set-up. I think it'll be cheaper, for one, and then the other benefits that need no explaining from me to any of you.
Theoretically, the idea of homemade buckets & a res, a slate of 10-15 pots sitting under a 600w hps and either a couple hundred watts of CFL's or a 400w mh inside of a framed up room in the attic (!!!) sounds intriguing to me. The space isn't ideal but I'm aware at least of what's needed to make it work. But damn is it a lot of work.
Alright... so, what'dya think farmers?
Soil?
Hydro?
