got some unwanted activity in my bottles, i think its some kind of fungus, its white and guey.
I put some clorine in the reservoir and Im going to let it run for about an hour, then im going to change reservoir and hope it dont return -
OK, finaly I got my windowfarm going, i halfway gave up for a while. my problem lay in the fact that i was aming too high. I just could not get the water high enough, and I could not get my reservouar deep enough to get enough pressure for the air not to blow back down in the res. the result being thath i bought a small water pump to get the preassure up before incerting the air. now I actually get too mutch water so i had to build a bufferreservoir at the top and add reduction valves and a overflow tube.
its quite the setup but it works and look good -
I must admit that the greatest problem with building a windowfarm is getting the bottles. I usually don’t drink soda at all so I didn’t have any bottles to start with. still working on emtying bottles
