The water shouldnt see light for dacteria problems

where did you buy all of your stuff

Fill up the Post Covers with Hydroton also. Then put your water on a timer. The flow of water makes it harder for the roots to absorb the nutrients. Constant flowing water can also lead to overfeeding problems.

YOU NUTRIENT SHOULD NEVER SEEE THE LIGHT OF DAY . (KEEP THE NUTRIENT IN COMPLETE DARKEST AT ALL TIMES FOR MANY REASONS).. RESEARCH THIS!!!!!

From my experience growing hydroponics is if your reservoir gets to much light it cause bacteria

the cool thing about this system is you can regulate the temperature according to the ambient temp of the room. If you can hold the air temp at 70-75 degrees then the water temp would be good at about the same temp. But, if it is hotter in your room and you have trouble holding a cooler temp you can chill the water to say 60 degrees and cool the plant from the roots.
I just have a couple of suggestions that you might find handy. First off you should extend the baskets themselves to allow more root growth, second the ideal temp for a reservoir is between 72- 78 degrees Fahrenheit, that is the temp the roots like to be at for optimum efficiency. And third the waterfall effect of the returning water will oxygenate the water which is crucial for the roots. You shouldn't have a problem with algae if you are doing proper water changes. Hope the info helped.

visionz12 2 years ago
Brand new pc cases go for about $249. At the moment I have one refurbished pc case that I could let go for $130 shipped. It has three light fixtures in it. It comes with 6 bulbs, a ph kit, ph up, ph down, and a timer. Oh yah it also has training fence. you can order a new case right from my site buyagrowbox. com . if you wanted to look into the refurbished case you will have to give me a call 678-478-1141.
Let me know if you have any other ?'s
