Anyone using a recycling reservoir for growing?


Recommended Posts

Better every week, particularly if you're using water which is particularly high in ec. If your water is less than 85ppm of sodium then you can recirculate for about 2-4, depending on the system size. More than that and you'd be best off with a weekly change of nutrient solution, with a good flushing of the media at this time too.

I'd agree with that. The more often you change your water in a recirculating the better your results will be. If your quality of water is good enough you can go an entire grow without a change. In any system a water change every 2 weeks would be adequate, its just a matter of whether you think doing weekly changes is worth the extra effort. It may or may not be only you can decide that after a bit of trial and error.

 

I don't like to harp but again I have to give run to waste systems a plug. Every feed is from a fresh nute solution with run to waste and also water and nutrient quality become much less critical for a healthy grow.
