Step 22Update 3 - Flooded potatoes
A week or so after I set my system up, it rained, hard.
It made me realise a small flaw in my design, any rain that falls on the potatoes floods it with fresh water, which then drains back into the reservoir, overflowing it.
A simple fix was to get a clear garbage bag, cut it open, and attach it to the greenhouse, hanging over the potatoes.
I even got to test this 1/2 an hour after I finished it, as it started to rain!
