All those litte bitty micro/macro nutes in solution go out with the drain water. I doubt it matters that much. But, I would rather keep them in the sub, rather than lost down a drain.
On top of that, using a burlap bag, or pillow case is MESSY. Plus, draining one exposes the sub to a lot of open air. Which can contaminate the sub.
Plus, hot steaming bags of h/poo hanging around is a GNAT MAGNET. Little fruit flies can smell that shit for miles. Then, make a bee line straight for it.
Gnats & fruuit flies are a giant PITA.
Hydrating in a plastic bag & pasturizing in the same bag.......... Minimizes a dripping mess, smell & open air exposure.
LOL, years back using cloth bags pasturizing huge amounts in a 55 G drum of hot water. Frigging bag was so heavy, I could not lift it out of the drum alone. Built a tripod & used a chain hoist to pull it out. Raised the bag up into the air, frigging bottom of bag ripped open. SPLAT went a couple hundred lbs of steaming hot shit, like a tidal wave ALL OVER THE PLACE.
Sounds messy.

Very nice, I can't wait to try it out! I know it isn't necessary, but it won't hurt; only help!
