Deck discussion for GU Hydra deck

FYI, Bloom Tender will only add 1 green in this deck as the only colour permanent you have is green. Bloom Tender adds for each colour in permanents you control, regardless of how many of each colour you control. Eg: with Bloom Tender, a blue permanent, and 3 red permanents out, Bloom Tender will give you {G}{U}{R}.

On a related note, despite tapping for different colours of mana, unless something is giving it a colour, all lands are colourless.

There's two problems with Azusa, Lost but Seeking here. Firstly, she's legendary, so multiple copies is bad. 2-3 copies should be enough, depending on how often you want to see her. Secondly, you currently only have 20 lands in your deck, so she'll outlive her usefulness very quickly.

Personally, with all the other ramp you have in here, I'd drop Azusa all together for another Hydra. Mistcutter Hydra has haste, so taking it up to 4x is good. Feral Hydra is a good early play that can also be a mana sink when not casting anything / much else. Vastwood Hydra's death trigger makes one or more of your other creatures much bigger. When Kalonian Hydra attacks, it double the +1/+1 counter on ALL your creatures.

Set legality doesn't seem to be a problem here because you're using Green Sun's Zenith, which is banned in Modern. Summoner's Pact is a Modern legal replacement. In fact, it'd be better because Green Sun can't fetch your X mana X/X creatures.

Do you think I will need giant growth in here?

Why wouldn't I be able to search for the X mana X/X creatures with green sun's?
Also I prefer not to use the pacts because I don't like spending that extra mana on turn 2. That's my opinion.

Other than on the stack, X is always 0. So you could search for them, but they would enter as if you chose 0 for X.

Well yes but if I chose like 4 as X and the {G} wouldn't they come in as a 4/4 or 3/3
