The optimal range is 5.5 to 6.1 I've had success though at 5.2 to 5.5, but I wouldn't suggest staying that low for most cannabis plants. That was a singular instance, and that plant is now gone. I have left my res for 11 days with BPN and it was at 6.0 when I returned.
If you calibrate, there is no need to readjust.... that would ruin your calibration.
Glad you found that your other pen works!! This is good news indeed.
I called into hydro shop for the buffer 10 and the 3point seemed to work fine when I re tested with the buffers and not calibrated the buffers and readings after all 3point calibration using 3 buffers all in this order. As follows were buf 7 @ 6.9ph, buf 10ph @ 9.9 & buf 4 @ 4.0ph.
But when I tested the old 1 which was already calibrated@buffer7. with all 3 the buffer4 read@3.1 & 10 @ 9.0. I will test again later with the old 1 and confirm with die ink ph testing local water and then test using both ph meters.
I swear m8 it's official I'm losing the plot!!
Driving me round the bend lol.
I have had the old 1 for nearly 7months but used bc it for a total of 3.5month's. Without being cleaned so I may have to dash it. Gutting any thoughts as I heard they don't last long.
Ooh yeah I bought an EC digital meter made buy HM .EC-3 Conductivity meter.as I am not able to measure the .EC buy like .ec2.0,2.1,2.2,2.3 & and so on as the stick measured in four jumps and not accurate as I'd like it to have been .bb jt a good swirling stick.
Converting from 0-9990yS/CM (backwards y tho) lol as I am UN sure at the moment and preffered your advice to there's Shame on them lol.
So my trucheon was flashing between 1.6-2.0 (1.8 more like) but the new meter read at 265x10flashing!!
So does this mean it is too high @ 2.6 .EC??.
Tested the tap water aswell and read @315 no flashing x10 tho.
So did you ever notice when using a different range of Nutrients that you were able to leave unattended for periods of time?.
What about ph run off? I mean what is this optimum range.
Flushing/cleaning and sanitise res and pots now can flush with local tap be ok??
