Good news then I guess. So tonight I will go back in and try to light proof all the pots as best as possible. Do you think that adding more grow rocks to cover the algae would help as well, seeing as I still have room to add rocks to each pot?

Thanks again.
if you're just washing out your tank and lines, isn't important ... it's just that bleach is hard on your hands, etc... a cupful in a gallon of water should be easily strong enough for serious disinfecting ... Rhyzome's suggestion of hydrogen peroxide is also good, and it is more compatible with plants (I had forgotten all about using that) ... :smokin:
the image reaper Reviewed by the image reaper on . I got algae....... I think??? How can I get rid?? It looks like algae. For the first two weeks of flowering I was unknowingly using dirty water. I bought it from a machine that claimed RO process but when I decided to test it, two weeks after using, I found that the tds was at 170. That was dirtier than my tap in the kitchen. Anyway, does anyone know how I can get rid of it? I have a hydro drip system. Rating: 5
