I'm planning on getting a UC 8XL, but they recommend a 75 gal reservoir. Is that much really necessary?
Also, when you guys drain your res to refresh the nute solution, how do you refill it so fast without leaving the plants with no water for so long? My RO unit can only make 5 gallons every 80 minutes so it would take like 20 hours to make 75 gallons..
Should I keep a 2nd res full of water that's ready to go before I drain my first res? Or maybe fill up the bath tub with RO water so i can pump it into my res? hah. Or maybe I just have the wrong idea about the whole process and you guys can clue me in.
Thanks for your help in advance.
