    Milwaukee pH600AQ Digital pH Pen

    I tried pH meters that cost 5 times what this one does, but this is my fave. It's robust, easy to calibrate, economical, and has lasted me almost 3 years already. It dried out a couple of times between grows, but after an overnight soak in storage solution (or nutrient mix) it has continued...

    Preparing germination water! about ec levels.

    Hi there! Four months ago I planted my first autoflower seeds (Hindukush).

    Molasses Fermentation

    I found that my Bloom Nute mix with Molasses went from 6.5 pH to 4.4 pH in one day. It took over 200 pH Up drops/Gallon to restore. This must be fermentation and fermentation creates alcohol. Could this be bad?? Should Moly be added just before feeding??? Thoughts?

    Does Feed / Runoff pH matter in soil?

    I have been under the impression that your feed pH as well as runoff pH is one of the most important pieces to do correctly. I have read that if your pH is not in the correct range for your medium, uptake of certain nutrients will fail. I saw a post on a forum that said your feed and runoff pH...

    Grow Mediums pH pen calibration: How many points do you use?

    I've been doing 2 point calibration for a while. 7 and 4, but it's never quite accurate. When I calibrate at 7 then 4, I notice the very next time I measure 4.0 calibration solution that the meter tells me it's 4.1. The meter also takes a long time to get a consistent reading at 4. I'm...

    Indoor Real Lemon Juice as pH Down?

    My plant seems to be having pH issues after I stupidly applied humic acids with a pH of 9.0 without balancing it out first. The leaves are developing orange spots in some places, paleness in other places, tip burn on the tips & are generally unhealthy looking (though the buds are super...

    Old Reviews MYTH: Water pH Relates to Medium pH

    The pH is a measurement of the hydrogen ions (H+) and the hydroxide ions (OH-) in a solution such as water. The range of pH is from ‘0’ (very acidic: the concentration of H+ ions is higher than the concentration of OH-) to ‘14’ (very basic: the concentration of OH- ions is higher than the...
