The last couple days I've been trying to catch up my knowledge to my plants and saw some stuff here about and power failures & how they can crash a DWC grow when the airstones stop & the oxygen gets used up. So I ordered some battery powered air pumps and some extras to plug into the battery/inverter cuz mine are hardwired in & the inverter ccouldn't handle the whole setup for long.
Not soon enough!
Lucky me- the powers of the universe decided to demonstrate that for me today so I would never forget.
About noon, the power sputtered out & it took me & the inverter wasn't charged & it took an hour to get a gas generator going. By that time, 4 plants in a ten gal tank- not even big ones- and 5 small ones in a 3 gal, were in serious droop mode. Leaves at sides, or headed there.
Took a couple hours to recover. If I hadn't read it here, I might not even have checked until it was too late.
