Organics in general suck ass in DWC. you'll have hella algae growth which can strangle your plants to death if you're not experienced

Then it's trichoderma. Very beneficial to plants in soil or soil-mimicking systems. The only time you really need to worry about microbes or bacteria is in a complete hydro situation like DWC, RDWC or Aeroponics. If your roots are actually in a medium then in general microfauna within the soil is highly beneficial

definetaly save the earth juice for soil, what do you feel is the absolute best nutrients for hydro, and do you think its a good idea to change my plants from one brand to another. i Have been using GH flora series thought about trying flora nova, or botanicare.

My nutes stain the perlite too, didn't know what the hell was going on at first, looked like little toasted marshmallows.
