To minimize this problem:\u003cbr\u003e\n● Employ a filter on the inlet to the nutrient pump. Also, in recirculating systems, install a filter in the return line. Ensure filters have a large surface area. This will minimize how frequently they need to be cleaned.\u003cbr\u003e\n● Position plants to avoid roots being drawn into drain outlets.\u003cbr\u003e\n● Maintain nutrient pH well below 6.5 to help prevent salt precipitation (particularly calcium sulfate).\u003cbr\u003e\n● Routinely disinfect the nutrient solution to prevent the build-up of algae and slimes.\u003cbr\u003e\n● Ensure nutrients are fully soluble.\u003cbr\u003e\n● Avoid using water that has high “hardness” levels.\u003cbr\u003e\n● Use a regular maintenance schedule. Routine ‘discarding’ and ‘flushing’ will help prevent the build-up of solids such as insoluble salts, algae and plant debris. Between crops it is useful to perform a chemical flush to remove insoluble precipitates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eSupplier source: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/erithhorticulture.com\/product\/stop-bloc-1l\/\"\u003ehttps:\/\/erithhorticulture.com\/product\/stop-bloc-1l\/\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Erith Horticulture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53667342418186,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0886\/9157\/3002\/files\/stopBloc.png?v=1788998278","url":"https:\/\/maxgrow.uk\/products\/stop-bloc-1l","provider":"MaxGrow","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
