Newbie wants to go hydro

clear = algea?

More than likely but I wouldn't sweat it too much. I'm using Fytocell now and the algae loves it, gets a carpet of green on top before they've gone into 12/12. Once the canopy gets dense it subsides.

When I've looked at the Fytocell after harvest, the dark layer from the algae on top is about an eighth to a quarter of an inch thick. At the bottom of the 11 litre pots, where the cutouts are, has about a half inch of light brown. Each darkened corner being about the size of 2 oxo cubes.

The rest of the Fytocell is pearly white and just about full of roots.

So on a whole would you say res temps will drop once my plants get bigger?
I mean will the heat/light be absorbed by the plants?
Thats what i'm hoping anyway

Coolers make perfect dwc units, and you can find them at the curb in any town on trash night, along with most of the gear we need for this gig.
