Hi IC, can someone tell me wtf is going on in my tank?

isit my nutrients crystalising? im adding canna coco a&b, boost accelerator and pk13/14.

water temps are 13/14c when first filled up then brought upto 22c with tank heater.. could it be the swing in temps thats causing it?

its been getting worse each tank refill.. as the weathers getting colder.

its not happening to my air pot grow that gets filled the same way/time but i add drip clean to the air pot tank now n again.

I know i have hard water but thats taking the piss lol. can see how bad the salt are on my tank heater and the cable

Hey Bro,

Yeah thats crystallization of the nutes, which I have found to be not helped by adding a thermostat, tbh I have gone this whole grow without using one either in my top up res or the UC system.
Do you use a circulation pump in the tank to keep the nutes mixing? Also I use a MJ1000 that has a length of 15mm pipe out the top and feeds it back into the res which causes the flooming effect, creating more DO in the water as well as mixing the nutes constantly. I will try and grab you a pic as since I started doing that the crystallization has stayed away, you also notice more and less with different nutes and additives, as the Plant Magic stuff I am using now does not form any whiteness around the rim of the res or in the containers, but when I used the GHE range the micro would cause a brown scum on the surface and throughout the walls of the system, and the Flora and Grow crystallises for fun, specially around the lid.

Great pics of the ladies mate.

Hi mate, the bush grow has gone pete wrong.. stretched waaay to much, i over vegged them a tad lol, they r falling all over each other @ 7wk.. tried sorting them out but its a losing battle =(

I have pics of the other side but keep forgetting the usb cable.

Lets just say i wont even come close to 1gpw but least we'll have some bud for the holidays.

Temps r whack.. if im able to carry on im going to build room from cellemax & have a lung room built to place heater in & have 1 grow room with dehumidifier & sms fan control.. if i get the nod.
