Anyone having a frothy res or froth in the pots mini res?
Using megacrop calmg+ and great white.
Feeling that the great white is like fermenting or something it's very odd. Worries me.
@bushmasterar15 I know you ran mc in the res. Any similar findings?

And sorry folks. I been dealing with family stuff recently so I been really Mia from here and even my grow. pH was all out of whack and I had a heady brew going in my res lol.
Things should be good now. I'll get updated after I get some time tonight and show this froth.

Do you bubble the res?

@Ash-a-Ton
If you are using airdomes its possible they could bubble up a more viscous/scummy solution. I've seen little air bubbles coming from bottom of the pot before...

Only time I've had some type of foam froth is when I've just filled the res and it goes away after a few hours. As far as the trays I only notice like a hard water line ring. I also don't run an airstone in the reservoir.

No air stones in res. Or air domes .
Has to be the great white .
I could hear my res bubbling like co2 or something . Brewing beer for my ladies I guess

No I don't and yes, the combination of air enrichment and microlife may very well be your issue.

Do you bubble the res?

 

[pop22]

This is why I keep it simple!

Yeah I use mc, mg, bloom, and cal mag and it left a crazy film in the mini res... I thought that my mix was wrong so now I'm just going with mc and bloom... I didn't think to check on it until I read your post... Yep, still there, like stagnant water and theres some kind of buildup on the connecting hose like a salt buildup... Hmmmmm ..
