All cleaned up now. Only 12 boards were swollen, not too bad. We have two more boxes so I just need to rent a guillotine and replace them.

I am so sorry. That really sucks. Don't ask how I know. But it was right about the time I decided tap water was fine.
do you run sterile throughout your grow? I have to make that change. Ro also wastes so much water.

I think there’s an option to add a water sensors to the alarm. I think curious2garden is right with going to tap water, this is the second time I’ve done this
aside from sensors or trays, the easiest way I’ve dealt with flooding issues is by having as large a reservoir as possible... like 30 gallon tub or 65 gallon drum minimum. Some people use those horse troughs, I just like the idea on reappropriating horse troughs for weed growing... maybe tmi but my daughter was born in one. Anyways, if you leave ro filter on, oh well, aerate and you have extra water for the next time. I’m considering how easy will it be to get a 200 gal reservoir through the door.

RO does waste a lot...and then we go and add calmag back in. I have been wanting to do an experiment and run a few plants on tap water and see if there any notable difference...I maybe should have my water tested first, but I know my ppm's are under 100.

But yes, I have overflowed my buckets numerous times, and I have ruined a big section of laminate flooring next to my grow area too. I just cut it out and threw an area rug over it, because I know it will happen again!

At TDS < 100 ppm, your water should be excellent.

Too early to bet on the game but will bet a nug from my personal on Brady winning the coin toss and another nug on Mahomes making TD first.
Naw it isn't, perfect timing. Me and the Mrs are doing a bet. She picked KC, I get Tampa....we just haven't set the stakes yet. Got a little work to do in the morning before the game, after that the pit get warm and the space tomatoes and beer flow.... :bigjoint:
