![]() I'm considering growing in a soilless medium. I have zero experience with hydroponics so I'm not qualified to answer these basic questions: 1. Assuming optimal growing conditions and methods, how does the flavor of tomatoes grown hydroponically compare to those grown in soil? Are there published taste comparisons? 2. How does nutrition level compare, particularly with regard to trace minerals? 3. Can some of these huge heirloom varieties be grown successfully and profitably in a hydroponic system? 4. Can tomatoes be grown successfully in a hydroponic system with organic methods and products? 5. Is there a type of hydroponic setup which could be considered sustainable?
