Are still debilitating if you will have the soil or hydroponics system for your cannabis plants? Don’t worry as this is just one of the concerns of many cannabis farmers. One of the reasons they need to give this a deep thought is because of the fact that this kind of cultivation should still be done discreetly.

So which do you think is better for your situation?

When you use the soil as the home of your plants, the process will be simple of course and more affordable being you will mostly use just the natural resources. There will be no need for you to set up grow lights and some other artificial resources just to ensure your plants will grow well.

However, you also have less control over your plants. As we all know that some of the soil contains a lot of pests that can impede the plants from growing well and sometimes, it is hard to stop them.

That is not the case when it comes to the hydroponics system. In fact, here are a number of reasons why this is a better option:

You don’t need that much space

While you need a lot of space for the soil system that is not the case with hydroponics as you can just set up this system anywhere. This can even be done in one of the corners in your room if you happen to be in an area where farming cannabis is strictly banned.

Saves you water

Intriguing, isn’t it? But this is true as the water you used, in the beginning, will be used for a long period of time. You will probably just add a little more if the need arises. With the soil though, you need to water your plants regularly until they can be harvested which can be a lot especially if you happen to be in an area where the sun is always at its strongest.

Pests are less

The presence of pests is of course obviously less compared when you are using soil. The reason is you can easily see them and can just remove them. With the soil though, you still need to observe your plants for signs before deciding there are pests enjoying your plants.

Yes, between hydroponics and soil system, the first one obviously wins. However, at the end of the day, it will still be you who gets to decide.
