Hey gang,


I was wondering the other day if it's even possible to grow organically in a dwc hydro setup. I have always used general hydroponics nutrients because i don't know of an organic replacement.

Of course. Some organic fertilizers naturally come in liquid form and the others you just turn into a tea before using. Some of the best organic ferts imo include Bat & Seabird Guanos, Fish Emulsion, Bone Meal, Blood Meal, Kelp Meal, Maxicrop, Worm Castings and certain high-Potassium ashes.

You can use Advanced Nutrients Iguana Juice in all hydro. Not sure of other brands though. I'm not a hydro guy, but I know some stuff can gunk up pumps, flood tables, etc.

You should also check out aquaponics if you want a TLO aproach.

I know right? You don't have to balance p.h. (after initial setup), add nutrients, and it grows fish for you. Heck ya!
