Alternative medium to lugging bags of soil

No, hempy is a style of growing in just 100% perlite or a perlite and vermiculite mixed with a small reservoir of water created by using a container with just one hole about 2" up from the bottom on the side of the container. You can use buckets, 2 litre soda bottles or anything that’s water proof. You water to runoff and then the base holds a couple of inches of water for the roots to seek out. I used to do it when I was first getting started because of how simple it was and being able to use make shift containers. Here’s a link I found by searching the term hempy style to get you some background.

Hi folks, does anyone grow indoors using “Hempies” ? I’ve been reading up on growing methods to try and grow larger plants with obviously more yield so I dont have to grow during the hot summer with its heat problems. I currently use soil/perlite in 19L fabric pots in a 4’x4’ tent, and was thinking of substituting the soil mix with coco coir/perlite but the fertigation seems complicated and too frequent, so I wondered about Hempies. Any info would be much appreciated guys…many thanks.
