any ideas on keeping water warm???

[kaiser666]

hello,,,ive got a problem,,,here goes,,,i keep my water in buckets for a few days to let the chlorine dissipate but when its time to give them a feed the waters like ice,,,a few times in the past ive give them cold water and it cripples them,,,leaves twisting and curling everywhere,,,in the summer its not a problem but now its winter its a different story,,,ive been putting the buckets of water into a hot bath to get them slightly warm but this is a right mess on,,,does anyone know of other easy ways to heat it???,,,what about a fish pond heater???

do you live in an igloo? bring the water inside it will warm up

 

[wiseguy316]

fish tank heater would work but i don't see the point if your house is heated

place the buckets next to a heat vent....

I just dumped a kettle of boiling tap water in a bucket of rainwater that usually got it up to above room temperature in a flash. Remember you lose a lot of your disolved oxygen by letting it sit at warm temperatures for a long period of time.

5 gallon bucket heaters at the hardware store work fast..

cheapest way is to use your body-warmth, hug em with love

I place my water inside my grow room in a large bucket overnight with a small aquarium pump running to add extra oxygen to the water. By the next morning the water temps are just perfect.

Buy fish tank water heater from ebay for about £10 and get those air stone things so it doesnt loose oxygen

low watt aquarium heater, 25-50w should be fine up to 10-20 gallons

Just put it in the microwave at 50% power and stir it up to distribute the heat evenly.

you must have a HUGE microwave, mine will only fit a one gallon bucket, not a 5!!
