Hi I am thinking to keep a synthetic-nute fertigation reservoir of like 15-30 gallons for a soil-less mix (peat/vermiculite) grow.
To be fed by a smart-home irrigation valve timer.
The issue, is that the reservoir will be outside in a hot environment.
I know this can be a problem for hydro (when the water tank-reservoir is too warm).
However I suppose that for soil-less, this might be less of an issue or even a non-issue since the medium acts as a great buffer?
I would plan to not change or refill the reservoir for about 2-3 weeks or so. To help automate the grow.
The outdoor environment is very tropical-hot and the fertigation tank could reach temps of 85 degrees even 95 degrees! I will plan to aerate it.
Please let me know your thoughts? Thanks in advance
