Which produces the best weed hydroponics or soil?

What Im talking about is the Buzz, high/why I smoke weed.
To be honest the whole super tight big nuggets of the Despensarie just aren’t always a decent Buzz. I dont want start any fights, i just want the truth. There is more than just THC and terpenes in play.

I don’t know that hydro offers anything in terms of THC concentration or enhanced terpines, but the advantage it certainly offers is more rapid growth rates.

@midwestguy, Can I ask how much faster compared to soil, which is what I grow in, (fox farm happy frog). Is it worth switching?

Seems with female, not Autoflowers that the growth is better. Will Autoflowers grow better?

I prefer autos and hydroponic setting. The potency is in your grow skills and strain you use. I grew super silver haze and the thc content was 18%. Grand daddy purple was 21%. I haven’t tested the super skunk. The SSH was a photo, the GDP and SS are indica mainly. I like the buzz but the sativa is uplifting makes you want to do something. The indica is more of couch lock for me. Friends love the indica. With hydroponic setting I use the roots and nutes are given to the roots directly for 30 minutes 4 times per day. My harvest tripled. This is a picture of my first hydroponic grow (SS)auto. Good luck with your decision.

In terms of qaulity there is not a noticable difference if things are done right. But soil is more forgiving for beginners. You can recover from mistakes. Hydroponics is a lot cleaner to work with (literally less dirty) but the ramifications of a mistake in feeding effect your plants immediately.

I have tried both in the begining with soil. I eneded up with a poster plant for deficiencies. Soil is not for me. I have been growing hydro for years the benefits I like is fast growth, easy to maintain water (after experience), never forget to water, and no guessing what the plant needs.
I know begining of grow for about 4 weeks everything stays balanced no need to do anything, just Peek in a couple of times. When changing to budding i do a partial flush, and change up nurts to flower. Then about two weeks later adjust again. When plants are budding it will drink 10 gals a week for 3 plants. When water consumption slows it is about harvest time. I made it sound easy.

For my grow it was easy.I just followed the Green planet nutes chart and it was my best grow and yield ever. Next grow may not be.

I think this is a very relative question but for an answer based on my long time experience and having the ability to sample other weed grown using different methods, I think the best tasting weed is grown by the sun in soil. 2nd would be indoors but still in soil and last would be any method not using soil. This is only for taste to me, not the strength or potency of the strain.
