 Soil to Hydro

So recently my interest of hydroponics has been sparked. I recently came across this article and it seems pretty legit. I guess you can move young plants from soil to hydro. I will be willing to test this soon. I just feel if you can go from hydro to soil, why not be able to go from soil to hydro. Read this article.

Those are coarse coco fibers you are talking about correct? Are they just like peat pellets? Like you would use them along with hydroton or something else?

Yeah, the trade name is coco peat or coco coir.

Mix 50/50 with perlite or hydroton or some of both. Coir doesn't have the bacteria or fungal spores that you will find in peat. If you don't sterilize the coir it will also have beneficial trichoderma. You can re-use it grow after grow, it is odorless, light weight, easy to handle, and a 100% renewable resource. It only has 60% water-filled space, the rest is air-filled so plants love the shit.
