Add eco-rose/eco-fungicide to system water to raise pH and add potassium... but to control fungus/mildew it needs to be sprayed directly onto both sides of affected leaves, and on leaves in the immediate vicinity to control any spread. If you don't want/need to increase pH then make sure that any excess spray doesn't drip into the system, although with 4kL of water in your system, a few drips of solution shouldn't do too much harm.

A 10% solution of milk shouldn't smell, even after a few hot days of being left on the leaves. If it does smell then you're making the solution too strong; adding more milk than one part milk to nine parts water does not make the solution more effective.

How are the yabbies packaged if you dont mind me asking. Polystyrene box?

I wonder if it would be legal for me to send yabbies around the place?
