going ponic

[lightbearer]

So I have a plant that has been in soil for roughly 4 months and I am not seeing the results I expected. She's growing beautifully but very slowly. I have already built a bubbler bucket and I have a 400w MH lamp with reflector hood for a light source. My question is how should I plan the transfer. It doesn't seem something I could do the 1+ hour/day adjustment with. Also, any opinions on the situation in general? Nute schedule?

I personally would be worried about killing her from the transfer. Anyway you would consider taking a clone and starting that in a hydroponic setting?

I'm pretty positive your plant will die if you go from soil to hydroponics.  I was wondering if I could do the same when I first got my plant, and you can go from hydro to soil but not the other way around.  Sorry.  Save your supplies and in the future you can use them for clones though.

thats a real bummer. I was convinced from talking to the fellow at the local nursery that it was possible. I guess I'll grow her out with the MH and then do the cutting rootine 

[bifster]

I know it.  But at least now you have a great system set up for future plants!  The sucky part is waiting.
