Nelson, before you buy another Kelway, take a look at the Control Wizard Accurate 8. Same dial indicator as the Kelway but with a 12" probe. I like it much better than my Kelway.

Cool. I freakin' love this Hanna combo, everything in one! And negative I do not use the calibration and storage solutions made by Hanna, as I got a better deal on a tri of everything from plant lighting. Seems to work fine.

I am presently raising money to help with my wife's dental expences. I probably won't be spending much but when I do get to the point of getting ready to buy another pH meter I will contact you for the particulars. There is no way I would ever find this post again.

It is always interesting to find out info on the test gear. The good growers always seem to be well equipped with test stuff.

When will the day come that someone on this site actually has a PAR meter and filter set so all this lighting stuff can can have real numbers put to it for penetration and light levels at the different frequencies. Until then we will have to relie on the stuff they advertise. Hmmmm.

Alrighty folks. Just another question or 2 please about nutrients :] I think I've found some that will be useful, but can anyone recommend any better ones?

Weeks 1-4: Canna Start (http://www.greensea-hydroponics.co.uk/shop/Canna_Start_Nutrient.html) & Vitalink Fulvic (to maximize growth early on, http://www.greensea-hydroponics.co.uk/shop/Vitalink_Fulvic.html) and root stimulant (http://www.abergreen.co.uk/Root-Stimulator-p-435.html?zenid=ut71ef9qmv7of660megrhn0t15)
Weeks 4-8: Canna Flores (http://www.greensea-hydroponics.co.uk/shop/Canna_Terra_Nutrients.html) & Canna Pk 13/14 (http://www.greensea-hydroponics.co.uk/shop/Canna_PK_13_14.html)

Most of these recommend pH 5.8 - 6.2. Mine is going to be about 6.4, is that alright?

Gonna bump this up :] Any ideas please people? Gonna get it ordered and start the growing in a couple of days.

Sorry, being in the US I'm not familiar with any of those. I do know that many UK growers are using Biobizz nutrients with good success. If you do use those, don't go by their published schedule. It's for photo plants and autos have different requirements than photos. Also, I would start with 1/4 strength and work up from there. Most auto strains usually do good with half strength, sometimes 3/4 and rarely can tolerate full strength nutes. Also, check this thread. I think it will give you a better understand of when to feed and what to expect. https://www.autoflower.org/f44/life-cycle-auto-flowering-cannabis-5113.html

Ah okay, thanks :] Should I just go with a root growth stimulant and some Biobizz Grow & Flower instead of all those previously listed then? And do you think 500ml bottles would be enough to grow 1 plant through first?

Update: I bought the Aerowing as recommended, though it turned out to be far too big for the DR60 tent, as shown here:

Going to get it sent back, so this is a minor setback. Could someone please recommend me a different setup, with a reflector that's not huge? xD

Hey bro I have the Same setup. Your light system is fine. Just watch how tall your plant gets. The first time I grew in it my plant got to tall, and it got burnt by the light. I had to go to the next size up just to save the plant. The Jardin tents rock!
