Reservoir temp?

I've been growing in my veggie pro for just under 4 weeks and everything seems to be going fine but the last 2 days I have had a hard time keeping the reservoir temp down.

the temp under the lights will be about 73 the rest of the space will be around 71 while the roots will be 79-80.

anyone have any suggestions on how to keep temp down, don't want my roots gettin too hot.

use a chiller or if you cant afford a chiller get some plastic bottles, fill them with water and freeze them. Put the frozen bottles in your reservoir. keep a good supply in the freezer so you can change them as needed.

I use Frozen bottles, but you need a lot if your temps are going up... I am now having issues withe res dropping to low 60's... gonna need to get a heater..... Water temp makes a huge difference... get it under 70 and do your best to keep it there and stay away from h2o2... use hygrozyme if you are running hi temps, or if you can afford it, use it period.... Chiller is definitely the way to go if you can afford it
