Greetings, friends.
I am in the process of constructing a small Ebb and Flow hydroponic system within plastic 18 gallon storage bins, and I have a concern about light pollution. My storage bins aren't as see-through as glass, but they do allow a decent amount of light . Should I be worried about my nutrient solution becoming a target of any problems due to the light? I've also heard that "root rot" can be avoided by keeping the reservoir fully protected from light.
If this is a problem, what would be the most preferrable method of closing off light from the reservoir? Besides wrapping it in scarves and stockings
Cheers,
Wendy.
