I set up a cheap $60 DWC bucket in my Denver apartment 4 months ago just to prove my friend wrong, and now the basil is 22 inches tall while the soil one on my sill is 8 inches and sad. Side A says hydro is fake and soil grows better flavor, side B says hydro wins on speed and size every time, and I honestly don't know which one I believe anymore. What made you switch one way or the other, or did a side by side test change your mind?
