Yo SS, if you can find a decent aquarium store nearby, You can try using their R/O water. The store in my neighborhood sells it for .75 cents a gal. Just be sure you test it, not every store replaces their expensive membranes on shcedule...

Could be. In fact very likly. You have to get that res temp down below 70 if you can. Anything more is just asking for trouble. Is the res sitting on the floor? Is the floor cement? If not you might want to get the res off the floor and put a fan directly on it. Worst case scenario is get some resusable ice packs like the one's for coolers and position them as close to the side of the res as you can. Maybe do both. Anything in the 60's is ok for res temp. Beats putting anything in the root zone.

thanks mc the rez was sitting on a wood floor inside atent with panda film the temp in the tent was 82 directly under the light 400w hps 15" from top of rez the temp lowered when i put the pump on a timer but it was too late i think
 
I think he was talking about air temp and not res temp. An air temp of mid 80's is on the upper end of ok. Still the res temp must be under 70 to avoid problems. It can even touch the lower 70's for a couple of hours at it's hottest but any more is trouble.

Mine is raised off the floor with a fan on it and it stay around 67 but this is winter. In the summer I'll have to see about the cooler ice packs.

May not be a problem for me. My wife likes it friggin cold in the house all the time. Like mid 60's. I think it's a devious plot to slow the aging process! LOL!!

Finally a good system calwood? damn, Im down. I've been researching alot since I recommended a POS. and we all need to find the best. my ZERO WATER did 000PPM for 6 months but I have since doubled that need.. It is at 20ppm now. so Im good right now but need an upgrade.
 
About temps yes cooler water I've heard helps alot. Under 70 from what I hear like homie said. I don't know the situation you are growing in but I plan on continiuing my hydro outside come summer. from what I hear tell I'll just have to bury my res outside under ground. I don't know if thats workable, but all I've read is it's best to be cool. I'll just have to put a air pad in bottom to keep it going. I've also read it's best not to seal the lid to let fresh O2 in. From what I understand if you seal the res, you wont get fresh O2 into it. Or to a degree. GL with your prob. Alittle hydrogenporixide might help too. GL
