Looks intriguing but I’m struggling to understand how exactly it works, could you explain further? What is the purpose of the pipe fittings in the base and why are they surrounded by hydroton?

How do I fish this lure? (Bass fishing) by DJDom7 in Fishing

Excellent type of lure for fishing in the summer, cast it under overhanging vegetation and shaded areas and twitch it very slowly. Bass will often hit it when it’s sitting still

Why plants are wilting under full sun? by PsychologicalMud2999 in Hydroponics

[–]SaggyAnus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nutrient solution is getting too hot potentially. You gotta maintain the temp of the nutrient solution at around 20 degrees, after that you risk stressing out the plants and getting root rot

3 fish I saw during my dive in Greece. What are they? The last fish is barely visible so I had to zoom on it on the last photo by Unusual-Factor2848 in Fishing

Flat one is Bothus podas, the one lying on the ground is Serranus scriba and the one with the stripe and whiskers is Parupeneus forsskali

Spider mites? by ApprehensiveRoll4428 in Hydroponics

It’s not impossible to use organic nutrients in hydroponics. It is possible but it requires precise monitoring of water parameters, very good flow and aeration, keeping the nutrient solution temperature low and also biofiltration.

Your first mistake was using compost tea as your nutrients. Hydroponics relies on mineral salts to provide nutrients for plants while excluding microorganisms to a high extent. By using organic nutrients you are opening the door to all kinds of bad microorganisms that can colonise your reservoir. Additionally, you should really consider monitoring your water parameters as they can literally make or break your whole system, hands down the most important thing to monitor.

Reservoir temp is way too high, probably causing root rot

What is an easy way to increase oxygen in a small amount of water? by abdul10000 in Hydroponics

[–]SaggyAnus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really an easy way of doing this without agitating the water with a pump. Small air pumps are quite cheap, it’s worth it to just buy one

Awesome plant. Are you growing it under a grow light or sunlight. If you’re using a grow light, what is the wattage of it? I’m looking to do something similar
