Ebb and Flow Max Temps?

[FrostyPelican]

Hey everyone, I have a question about ebb and flow temps. My grow area this time of year is in the 80s (mid to low) and I'm cheap so a chiller or AC unit is out of the question. I know if I run DWC now I will be battling rez temps and I don't want to deal with it. (normally hydro only in winter for me)

My question is, with room temps in 80's would ebb and flow/flood and drain be more forgiving regarding the higher temps?

I have rez clear type stuff that works well I can throw an ice bottle in there perhaps once a day max.

Thanks

I would try to keep it as close to 70 as you can. Seems with the larger Rez it shouldn't be too hard with frozen bottles. Especially if you chill before your flood times. And changing the Rez regularly. That's one of the many reasons I'm switching from Dwc to a ebb n Flo bucket system.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking, larger rez, change it often and throw a bottle in during the day before it floods. I think I'll throw a few down and just give it a shot. I guess you never know until you do it.
