Who has experience with hydroponic gardening?

Hydro is very powerfull **** man.

It's not worth the effort unless you do it on a large scale. There are a lot of chemicals and equipment like grow lights involved, so it's really not cheap. Better to rent space in a community garden and do it the old fashioned way, or buy a share in CSA (Community Support Agriculture), or go to farmers' markets now that the season is here.

Container gardening mught be worth a shot if you are short of space.

that's helpful info. thanks.

my doc told me that we'll soon have medical marijuana in north carolina from all indications which would be good news for me with my glaucoma if I still smoked.
Maybe I can look into getting licensed to become a pot farmer.

Are you still prepare to do hydroponic gardening? I guess hydroponic lightiing is essential to help the growth of plants. such as ballast, bulb and reflector.
