Based on the sample hands, I would recommend putting in 1 or 2 more lands. I always get 1 too few.

Really? I get two or more mana on almost every pull. Usually one of each or a rootbound crag. I don't think I have room for anymore without flooding my hand.

Yeah, I get 2 mana in my hand every time, but that is not actually enough to play anything good from my hand for several turns. Just put 1 more forest in.

You can't play but one mana on the first turn, then another on the second. by then you should have an elf or two out to ramp mana even more. I just can't see adding more.

bioshift. it wins you the game. i built a deck very similar. also rites of flourishing. and rampant growth. and land fetch. hydras alone do not make a good deck.

You definitely need at least one Rosheen Meanderer.

Just change Priest of titania for elvish archdruid and this deck will become modern.

Must be something other than the priest. I'd have been down for that being the only change to make the switch, but something else is holding it up, too.

One of ooze flux is fun in hydra decks. "Doom blade" "in response, make a 12/12 token for 2 mana"

I really like this deck!
A few things i would personally look at:

You play a lot of half playsets, e.g. 2 Protean Hydra while also playing 2 Primordial Hydra. Consider if Primordial wouldn't win more games than Protean would. Pro might grow while Primordial will. This also makes it a fairly good 2-drop after a turn 1 elf drop - it will grow each turn anyways.
This leads me to my next suggestion. Add more forest and remove a few mountains. It's crucial for you to have that 1 green mana at turn 1 that comes in untapped. Ramping is essential here, as you want to overwhelm your opponent. If you have the means to, see if you can fetch yourself some shock lands (Stomping Ground) :)

A card you can consider as well: Doubling Season. Make sure you look up all the rulings on this card - it's pretty awesome :)

Thanks for the tips! It's nice to get helpful criticism, rather than bashing! I truly appreciate it!
