Sorry you feel that way. It's true that growing hydroponically is more time consuming, but it's a proven fact that it will produce better crops. For those who don't want to, or cant put the time into hydroponics it may not be for you. I personally enjoy giving my plants the attention and watching how fast they grow. The
broccoli plants I transplanted into a
drip system one week ago have doubled in size scence then (in just one week). I don't know of any plants that cant be grown hydroponically if done wright (that may take some time to figure out).
