is hydroponic better than soil? (The answer may surprise you)

Today, we pit hydroponics vs soil to answer the question of "is hydroponics better than soil?" I talk about why hydroponics is bad just as much as it is good depending on the plant and the situation.

Hi Joshua, nice video. I have used the kratky system for a while my pepper plants has stopped growing and because I was busy most of the time I’d forget to add the nutrient solution causing the plant to dry out and setting it back. (I mailed you some pictures of the plants in January I think) I realized that it wasn’t working for me. I even had a system with an air pump but it was too much noise for me (I really loved the root growth though!). I transplanted them to a coco+perlite mixture and kept feeding the pepper plants hydroponic nutrients. They are all producing peppers now. Can’t wait till they are ready. After they produced I will try and make a Frankenstein pepper tree. If I manage to get some fruit out of that I will send you some seeds if you like.

Cheers
