thank you. I was wondering about what other materials being used
Lots of potential materials are used. These students just scratched the surface of growing media.
The purest in me is concerned about the bleaching a chemicals from the styrofoam and polyvinyl chloride tubing
We don’t use styrofoam but as for pvc and other plastics…. Have you ever been on a farm? Plastic is everywhere.
Hello, a question, please, does a fish tank in this system produce an unpleasant smell, and thank you
No it does not. Are you having a problem with odors?
