don't know that you would get enough o2/air to the roots as wet as you would have to keep your soil

If you're going to go to all that trouble why just not do a hydro grow? I think it would be easier (and less messy) than trying to do that.

ya it would just dry out the roots reli fast and take way to much tuning to get it just right lol well it was worth a shot lol

an airstone in soil wouldnt do anything but dry out the roots in some areas, as had already been said. The air pressure would just find a pathway out and take that pathway constantly... it wouldnt mix with the soil or increase the soils ability to provide more oxygen to the roots (except maybe in a random spot or two). To increase oxygen in soil you have to mix it with another medium.
