I love Hydroponics specifically because it removes soil. And it turns out that a very large majority of pests basically need that soil to set up shop so when you get rid of soil you get rid of a lot of common pest problems.
Also be careful if you do it with tomatoes, turns out that being a plant made up 90% of water means that you absolutely love being in a giant bucket of water and grow fucking out of control
