sudden problem in Aerogarden grow

SpikeA said:
seems to be coming back for the most part. I changed a few things, got rid of rock wool and fabbed up some foam inserts to hold them, temp seems to be a problem since I cannot get water temp below 80*. But they are still kicking. I did add a air pump with 3 small stones. Also added fresh water/nutes. Will see how it looks on Monday.
 
Someone here mentioned it, and I'll repeat it...  Use the frozen soda bottle trick.  Fill a couple of 2 liter bottles 3/4 full with water, freeze them, and one at a time, put them in the res, until you get the temp down.  Like I said, 68 is optimal, but 72 is fine.
