Cool Works Ice Probe for Waterfarms
I have a waterfarm setup. 4 modules, recir. with the great help of people on here. All of my temps, nutes, ppm, ph are good but it looks like I am getting root rot and its the 1st week! So, I have adding freezer packs (placed inside of ziplock baggies) to help keep the water temps down. Without I am around 72-75 deg. That shouldn't be enough to cause yellowing on all leaf edges, but it looks like it is. Upon reading posts regarding water chillers, I came across this nifty little item. You can actually drill a hole in the res. and install this cooling probe. It works off of elec. and can drop a 15 ga. setup b/w 6-8 degrees. Plus it only costs approx. $100. Has anyone used one of these? All I need is a few degrees to be happy and spending $300+ does not seem realistic. I can not put the res. outside of the room. The room temp is around 76 degrees. I could place the res. more out of the way of the light, but that would require re-doing all of my tubes and eventually when the light gets risen, the spetrum of light will eventually hit the res. So, as of yesterday, I added some hyd. perox. Sunday I will either do a res change with more hyd perox or add the hydrozyme and hydroguard. I am just suprisedof root rot already. This is my 1st attempt at the waterfarms. I have more exp. with the megagarden. Any comments would be appreciated.
