I have been curious about the IP ever since I found it 2yrs ago.I dunno, depending on how small an ice probe would work, 10 gals of uninsulated or better can be chilled, although an ice probe in conjunction with a cooler would be the shit.
No worries there bruh !Don't hate me because VO hates me btw, we have our differences and I take it at that.
excellent outlook! look forward to our posts.I have been curious about the IP ever since I found it 2yrs ago.
It would most def keep temps stable, up to a 120qt IMHO.
No worries there bruh !
I kinda got that between you two from a few very brief reads.
Besides, I go based on OUR relationship !
My previous post was for anyone popping into the thread, in general.
yup... my rdwc was a massive failure even with 2 hours of my time every single day to cool the water temps with ice. so far the cooler dwc has been 1/2 the work and the single plant im growing is looking much better and healthier because of the even ph i have now cause the roots are not dying off in the soup with 75*+ water temps.Welcome OlBlue. I too use the insulated styrofoam that you memtion, as do a few others. And there are others who tap right into the original cooler lids. Whatever works best for you really. If I ran the 5gal sport coolers then tapping the lid seems to be the best choice no doubt. BoomerBloomer57 uses 120qt with the insulated lids and one plant per cooler. I use the 48qt and run as much as 4 plants per cooler with no probs. The mnain benefit we are after as DWC growers is stable temps in order to get stable PH. At that point the grow is 2/3 in the bag minus PPM.
so it just overhangs the edges of the cooler? I'm about to go buy another veg cooler, gonna get one with a uninsulated lid and just poke holes in it since I'll be running bennies in veg temperature really isn't a concern but should be easily controlled.Mine are 2 inch thick insulated styrofoam wrapped in ALUMINUM FOIL tape.
