After weeks of trying to keep my water cool in various different ways I finally found a solution that works for me.
Now im sure experienced growers have already done this at some point, but I personally had such a hard time trying to find something that would work for cheap and it seems to me like there is quite a few out there that feel the same way.
So as you can see a very simple method and it should work as long as you have the space to hook the ventilation duct in. all together you could probably do something like this for around 20-30 bucks most of that money being spent on the fan and im sure you could even drop it down to 10-15 or less.
It dropped my water temps down to the mid to high 60's depending on how cold I have my room set to. However there are some draw backs for sure. First off its a clunky ass mess ( granted most of that is on me I was working with what I had ) and the second major issue is the constant evaporation.
The evaporation may be a kinda good/bad thing however since now that im adding water more regularly im sure it will also keep the water a lot cleaner for the roots.
Supply list:
Fan
Any kind of air ventilation
Filter - optional ( can never be too safe )
The prices on all 3 of those vary obviously but if you get a fan with a decent air flow you should be gravy.
Well I hope this helped as it was quite annoying for me before I had this placed in.
