With autos there is no need to flip to 12 12 lighting schedule.

It’s just that it is testing off the chart initially. Always on the high side.

Yep. I have already been on Amazon. Thanks.

It’s not that kind of tester. You get a vial that you fill with your water and put a few drops of testing fluid in and it turns the water a color. The color tells you the ph.

It’s been going since early spring, so a good 9 months. I am in central US so pretty warm for the most part. I have seen worms in it but haven’t really inspected it that close. Tomorrow I am planning on turning it so I will give it a good look. Maybe take some pics.

First post! So here is the situation. I have a really nice compost pile that is pretty much completed cooking. It’s some very nice looking stuff. It was made with grass clippings, leaves, coffee grounds, eggs and whatever kitchen scraps I had as well as leftover soil from previous grows. I...
