hydro water temp?

[weedss]

water temp doesn't matter right? i use aerogarden nd water gets warm. not too hot not too cold.

do i need to measure the temp inside of the water tank?

warm water holds less dissolved oxygen and promotes the growth of algae. So yes, water temp does matter.

how does that thing work in tha water? nd what temp is good for roots.

I use a simple DWC with an airstone. I keep a few soda bottles filled with water in my freezer. When the water feels warm to my hand, I just drop a bottle into the bucket. I know this isn't very a precise or scientific method, but it works well for me since I'm cheap. What kind of system are you running?

keep temps below 70 if possible and A:either run H2O2( a sterile res) or B: run beneficial bacteria and fungi.

aerogarden bro.

Oh what a cute little system, trash it and get some buckets .

 

[weedss]

correct me if i am wrong.

heater helps to maintain temp. i can set up the temp before i put it in the water. right?

what is the best temp for the rootS?

 

[Korner420Garden]

aerogarden bro.

the aerogarden set that you can buy in stores/on tv? or do you actually build an aeroponic system with misters and dangling roots?

 

[dbkick]

One moment, I can't believe I just promoted uninsulated buckets, got igloo coolers instead.

sorry man. AG is all i have.. besides i am going to grow 1 plant so..

That thing has a small res and apppears to have a water pump , this will lead to pretty high temps I'm thinking, not too mention you'll be adjusting ph a lot.

a bucket cost 5 bux and a air pump not much more. sorry man, the aerogarden was probably a bad choice
