did you use a regular green garden hose ? try the potable water hose before you ditch the entire idea . a potable hose is the white RV hose they sell for campers/RV's its not supposed to be as toxic as the green ones .
adorable !!!
Never seen a green hose kill plants.
I have a white drinking hose. I will try that. Instead of leaving the sump pump in the rez I will take it out flush it with RO after ea use. Ea time I use it I will drain off the RO in the hose before ea feeding. Also took off the dram will just use the brass on/off valve.
Seems like a lot of extra crap going to a pump feeding.
