Pleasantly surprised on these, I’ve used them for cuttings before but a 1st on germing and sprouts 
@HappyHydroGrower @NUG61 this is the res temps in the lung room. Can I get through a successful grow with this temp

I grow in soil and I let my nights get in the upper 60’s even with the light running 24 hours. Even during the daylight hours I don’t go over 74°. 
I think my GG and BD have had some adverse affects due to the cooler temps but the GL loves it. Personally I believe 70°-74° is a good zone to veg at.

My dwc system rez was running around 75°F over the summer. But i was running Hydroguard and almost dbl the amount of air. 1 liter air per minute per gallon of rez is the target. Warmer water holds less oxygen of course

I was pushing about 25-30 psi max, I’ve got a 70 psi coming tomorrow. Appreciate that info

Right on Brother! Duh don’t know how I forgot you were running hydro, I waked and baked too early this morning

70 should be fine. I would be sure to use some kind of root inoculant. Also keep in mind, your res may be one temp but what about where your roots are.
It might be worth the time and trouble to get a water proof hygrometer to put where you roots are so you can monitor the temps a little more precise… may not be necessary… 
Just my opinion.

Right on Brother and appreciate that root chamber suggestion. The closet can hit 80 so thinking insulating the complete tub is necessary

My next upgrade will be rectangular aluminum tubs for both res and grow totes. That way I can put foam insulation board around them nice and even. They’ll also have a SS hinge on the back side so I can attach my scrog to the top and still be able to lift the lid to check roots and whatnot. Good luck!

Mock up test run with the low pressure system waiting on the high pressure pump to show up. I mainly wanted to get the sprayer manifold and net cup set, drainage and intake plumbing. The plumbing will change on the supply side with having to mount the HP external pump. LP aero 1.5 prototype 
. Still praying I can get the high pressure going and the water micron size down to 30-50 for a true HP aeroponic system. At least I’ll have both to experiment with

Thank you kindly Sir 
looks like a thing of Beauty you have created 
That is definitely one of the improvements ill be making next time. I was struggling to keep root zone temps under 70 in late veg/ early flower.

Acapulco Gold clones harvested and in the Wedryer. Very pleased with the bud density even the lower hanging fruits were pretty solid. I’ve waited 41 years to smoke some of this again
