There was a car tyre in the water. The comparison of Susan St and Fort Knox data was a bit puzzling this month: Fort Knox ammonium and turbidity were high (and significantly higher than Susan St) And yet the EC reading at Susan St was much higher than Fort Knox’s. But the phosphate levels were fairly similar.
