We received an email over the weekend saying:
I just went into the hydroponics lab and your systems were so low low on water that the pumps were starting to be uncovered and making loud vibration sounds. Had this gone on for another 24 hours, I’m sure the pumps would have seized.
I grabbed the only jug of solution Ir could quickly find (it was Damon’s & Julianne’s) and started pouring it in to your systems to refill the fluid. I refilled the jug with plain water 2 times to top off all of your systems.
Hopefully this will not hurt our plants. First thing Monday we will have to check out what went wrong with our system. Thanks Damon and Julianne for the solution!
Would the addition of regular water created issues for the following weeks? If so does it have to be completely drained or just properly treated.
