It is only possible if your growing medium is already charged with enough nutrients to get it through it's grow. An example of this would be growing in living soil, which if done correctly can get an auto through it's whole life cycle with basically just water. But even in living soil people often add compost teas, top dressing of organics, etc., especially during flowering when the soil starts to get depleted.

It is but you should expect a small yield, to stay away from chemical fertilizer you should use something organic so you only have to use water because you're using living soil, the most you might have to do is amend the soil around week 5. Here are two things that you add to your soil : GAIA GREEN All Purpose 4-4-4 and GAIA GREEN Bloom 2-8-4. The all-purpose 4-4-4 is to be added to the soil before planting and then Bloom 2-8-4 should be used as a top dress around week 5.

It's possible but if you're going to do it I recommend super high quality soil and non-filtered .and generally it's not recommended to do, your plant will need at some point some nutrients or cannot receive from the soil. A good solution for you maybe is something like biotab or slow release nutes. 🌱👍

Grow phase yes or though bloom phase I would say is about when you would run into problems. They get hungry and plain tap water is just not enough. And if it’s hydroponics even worse at least with soil there is nutrients in that For the first 3 to 5 weeks. Would love to know why you would want to though.

Hey friend, So i believe any plant can be grown with just water, but the conditions of the soil need to be ideal. So if you were using a super soil mixture that had all the nutrients all ready mixed in then a grow without adding extra is definitely possible. If you're using just an average soil, then you may be able to make it to flowering without nutrients , but it's questionable. There may be small deficiencies like calmag etc. Good luck with the grow.✌️ *p.s you could always try a top dressing method over liquid fertilizers?
