"Does EI + ADA's aqua soil work well?"

A beautiful picture!

But - and don't take offence - isn't that like showing a picture of a healthy, happy baby with the caption, "We feed him Heinz baby food", or one of a beautiful woman surrounded by studs, captioned "I'm so glad I use Ban deodorant!"?

I think it would be more useful if you compared the results of different substrate-fertilizer-lighting regimens rather than show what happened with just one of them.
