I don't like autos because you lack control. I suggest every beginner or really anyone restricted by a tent to grow DWC (Deep water cultivation). 5 gallon bucket, root basket, hydroton, air pump. Just water in by hand. The speed/quality are perfect for low space. Until you get to the point where you have a dialed in set up and locked in procedures DWC will blow the rest out of the water. I love to talk growing so if you ever have any questions feel free to dm me!

@Bohnz_ @Idkdotgov Blow the rest out of the water in yield and simplicity? Yes. In taste and terp profile/expression? No. Good living soil wins every time

@JediMindPhuk420 @Idkdotgov Provided you are getting 90% out of your plant than sure living soil will get you the last 10%. However in a 4x4 tent you are not growing LIVING soil, you are using soil. Living soil requires a high volume of dirt, you aren't doing it in a pot.

@Bohnz_ @Idkdotgov Lolol what’s actually accurate to say is “the smaller the container is, the harder it is to maintain a fully self sustaining living oil ecosystem.”
Doesn’t matter regardless. Any GOOD soil blows DWC away with terpene expression, flavor profile, and taste.

Not true at all. Take your average home grower one in 3 gal soil pots one in DWC. Same set up, 9/10 the average grower will grow far better weed with DWC. It is not a debate. Dialing in your climate, your EC, PPFD, and micros will give you a far better jump in overall quality than just swapping media. Even with a dialed in set up, you will see subpar results for the first few runs in living soil as the bed needs to really mature to build its ecosystem. I've done side by sides in 3 gall air pots with coco and promix HP + amendments giving both beneficials, coco smokes it every time for the exact reason I listed. Ask any true living soil juggernaut and they will tell you the exact same thing.

@Bohnz_ @Idkdotgov DWC and coco rely on using nutrients and delivery methods that involve absorption happening immediately. This fast growth bypasses the mechanisms that cause plants to create complex, aromatic compounds. It smokes it yield. It loses in terpene profile (complexity) and flavor.
