Is this for hydro or soil?

Short answer is both. Hydroponics means ..." nutrients carried by water.. basically... So if you want to add nutrients by mixing this into water it works great. (the other way is to add granules of nutrients into the soil....). Or just put it in the water for soilless use.

Of course, we use it for the garden. The reason we bought it, though, was to fill the dog water bowls. Regular garden hoses have lead (or so I have heard).

The volume of the container is good. You could just use rocks at the bottom to facilitate water running out of the soil. I drilled a few holes at the bottom of the container (it was very easy) and have had no problems. I like the container very much. It is light and holds a lot of soil.

Kinda doubt it.... its mostly used for checking wood moisture, probably could check the surface moisture but I don't think the prongs are long enough to check soil.

This one is more for in ground. The above ground unit I had came with hose fittings instead of the pipe clamp this one has.

I suggest that you water your plants so the the soil is evenly moist "before" filling and installing the Hydorspike. I personally use the Hydrospike with Authentic Haven Brand Natural Brew premium soil conditioner tea for the past three years with much success

i used as a test for both and both when used worked about the same hydro worked a little better but that's cause it grows faster with hydro anyways.

Paul, you need to contact hydrofarm directly. I'm a consumer just like you who purchased a hydrofarm green house.

This is intended to mix into you garden soil. However, I DID use it in containers [because the price was so good] but I mixed it half and half with potting soil and that has worked nicely.

It is for tree root control for septic tanks or cess pools.You should call customer service and ask them.Fred.

From my experience with this soil. It could be used for outside ground I use it and works fine. I guess it's just the way they advertise it one other thing it's a hevei soil it maintains a lot of moist so just watch that watering. But it should be fine. Good luck.

No its not just for hydro, I use it in soil-less mix (sunshine advance 4). I use it in week 2 of bloom at 5ml per gal. Hope this helps.

It doesn't work well in hydro, I think it agitates it too much. Try general hydroponics organic hydro line.

As far as hydroponics go in general, the grow big hydroponics should work. The others are not formulated for hydroponics and may need a different ratio to get the desired effect. If you go to their website I think they have estimations for both (but that is a guess of mine at this point) Let me know if you need any additional help.

This isn't really hydroton but yes you can mix it with soil to aid in aeration. I've done this before on plants of all kinds with great success. Just be sure to water slightly more often because the soil will dry out faster due to added aeration. I suggest a ratio of .25:1 to 1:1 (pellets:soil). You can also put them on top of the soil to act as a mulch (works great with tomatoes) and at the bottom of the pot for added drainage.

You could use it for either one. If for soil you'd primarily use it as a foliar spray.
