Recycled tires as ebb and flo medium

Any body ever use recycled tires as an ebb and flo medium? They look like they could work, they are in the gardedn dept of home depot. The recycled tires dont look like tires lol. They are chopped up into little pellets and sold as a mulch. I heard they work well like a hydroton almost i think. I thinking of doing it. Beats mail order and i ain going to a hydro shop. I hear their are cops all over them!

I found out u can use them. They dont hold much water except between th cracks. I gues they wud be good for dwc, they are at home depot!

hmm have fun with plants that smoke like tires!

Just the sound of it makes me smell burning tires. I know what your talking about though and I dont see why not. Keep us posted

I wonder whar the res hydro experts like A.L.BFUCT have to say. I am going to do it i thin now in a dwc. I 100 litrt setup with 10 net pots. I also have to find a nutrient that is gonna work good. I will need quantity and quality w/o spending an arm and leg. Right now i use stealth hydro nutes and superthrive. I want to try something a little better but i have noe complaints as a first time grower. Though my growth a little slo, yet as i said first time grower here, there was some mishandling!

DWC with tire mulch. Res change gonna use water pump and my bath!

it will be neat if it works, I will be watching for updates
Thanks!
