Need info or hydro 101

hey people anybody ever use lava rocks as a grow medium??? trieing to get a hydro system going...what i need is a course in hydro 101. lol . get good results in soil. just trieing something different...chuck

Some swear by it, some swear at it. Re-use requires a lot of work. But I've never used it, just read the details. VV

Never used lava rocks just hydroton clay pebbles since they are so cheap

Ok so I've been at this site for a while, sometimes impressed, sometimes even blessed, and other times if I didn't have the knowledge, would've done somethiung very foolish. Example those hydroton clay pellets that you speak of...not really cheap homey, and compared to lavarocks, which can be found practically everywhere, where as no hydroponic store near by, in a eightmile radius, so an additional fee is required to purchase these clay pellets. And for the record for you know it all hacks, meaning the ones pushing nutrients, or saying you shouldn't build your own light, KEEP your OPINIONS to yourself, because they are only that, not fact, I didn't coment on those people because I didn't know about DIY, but know since I do all the more reason. But the main reason for this Rant is because we all need to come to simple methods, not ordering more products, or the stupidity of bigger is better or the more exspensive the better, which is just not true. Aquaponics, mollasses and anything natural should be praised, especially worm composte, literally being one with nature, will always be superior, no matter what, and this is not preference, just fact, take a look at the ocean, does it have cancer, do the seaweeds prosper. Point being that the KISS method should be praised, not putdown, What cause someone has more gorgoeus than you not to use thier mommies credit card...Grow up guys,,,and this really isn't directed to you above, but you did start a fuse that was ready to ignite since I've gain this knowledge. No matter what always lov3.

man you have issues some times the more expensive is better. Sometimes its over rated. And that shit about "does the ocean have cancer" who fukin cares, this site is all about opinions and you have no right nor do you come from a place to tell the people on this site to keep their opinions to them selves, othere peoples opinions are sometimes exactly what people are looking for.

But your opinion is bullshit so keep it to yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL

You're right opions are useful to some not others...Hey did you know you can grow with a flashlight...yup!

Hope that rant was to me as I just said I only have used hydroton.I mean I say cheap as you can get 15 pounds for $11 and 50 lbs for $30 so to me thats cheap..anyways the lavarocks are sharp and can cut the roots up pretty bad.to each there own though
