In an effort to clean up my irrigation system (had some build up on some of my tubes), last night I put some vinegar in my tank with my pump and had it circulate for a bit. Stopped circulating and left it overnight. This morning I rinsed... and rinsed and rinsed and I couldn’t seem to get rid of all the foam. I was rinsing to waste so it’s not as if it was still circulating. Tank was throughly rinsed with no foam when just adding water but when i would start the external pump to recirculate through the general tubes (not to my drippers/plant) there would be foam again. It seemed to foam up more when I would stop pumping for a while and restart... I’m friggin confused at how there could still be foam. I feel like I must have rinsed hundreds of gallons (wife is gonna kill me)... still some foam. I can’t speak enough to how much I rinsed and recirculated everything through... still some foam. Anyone have any experience with this? Should I be ok still to feed at this point??
@ComfortablyNumb External irrigation pump, PVC, some plastic tubing.. I have a valve I put in so I can close the system off to the room so I can just recirculate the system itself.
@GanjaFarmer24 No res, I use drippers that drain to waste
Just curious when you mean eating pets of the system @ComfortablyNumb what do you mean.. like the pump or the bacteria in it?
If I flushed a whole bunch of water through it multiple times, Help me understand how adding a base would help? (Sincerely). When I add water the PH is the same as before the clean so it’s not like the water is acidic now either.
