Soil ferts are not complete (they typically contain little if any Ca and some other micro's) since the soil provides a portion of the nutrients. They also contain things like Urea forms of N which get broken down by beneficial microbes into Nitrate N which the plant can then use. Hydro ferts typically have more Nitrate N since there are few if any beneficials in an ideal hydro set up. I would go with a fertilizer specifically formulated for hydro. If that's all you have though, I'm sure it will work. Perhaps not ideal, but it should work. You know FF makes Hydroponic Grow Big?:leaf:
