I know that the solution is blue, but just for shits and giggles can you calibrate that PH pen just for the hell of it?

I do every 2 weeks but I will..I just did yesterday....is 6- to 10 drops of pH down to much for every water? I know I was going to heavy on solution before I thought it was safe to use and sometimes I would use to much down and have to use the up to get it in range....

You think me not keeping track of how much pH solution could of caused this..sometimes I'd just squirt the shit in there and use to much....and have to use the up....now I'll use a drop check drop check drop check...I only used 6 drops on the last 3.5 gallons of water with 50 ppm of cal-mag....

yes, PH down adds phosphorus or nitrogen depending on what you are using and too much can throw your nutrient balance out.

Someting is still wrong if your water is coming out of an RO at 10 PH? You need to send you water off for a complete analysis. Get a gallon of distilled water and check your meters on it.

6 drops is about 1/3ml. that is not too much in 3.5 gallons of water.

Ok thanks...I know I was using it to much before could have been the cause.i would just squirt to much in there and have to use up to make it 6.5 ..I'm not sure, but that's a good idea...I will do that get analysis done...we don't drink are water.....and I'll count my drops like I did today so I know I don't go overboard....I appreciate your help....I'll get a gallon of distilled water today....

Do any of your meters check EC?

Yes ec 350 probably 300 since the meter I used is about 50 off...

Ok I got a plan my dehumidifier pulls alot of water in a day with pH 6 and ppm of 42...I'm going to start mixing it with my ro water to see if it helps with the pH issue....I also lowered my lights to 800+ ppfd and have my uv far red ir bars coming on 15 min on and off 15 min for 12 hours ....also any ideas why my ogre berry seeds aren't popping up this is the second bone that just stops growing soon as I put it in the soil????

Ok I have this HM com-80 and set at 0.5 setting...is this only half of the real amount? Ok say I put in water it reads 60 ppm is it really 120 ppm?? Cause I put my other meter in the water I know it's off by some but it reads 175 when this reads 62... Just wondering....

I'm using water off my dehumidifier for all my nutes.

Im going to start adding to my feeding ro water....to help adjust the high pH.....I think it will help... Also I know I was over doing the solution.. so I'm going to count and control how I use it.. so I don't go overboard.....thanks.... I was using dehumidifier water in my humidifier's....
