So I’m running HP COCO. With fox farm nutes. You say coco like 5.8 ph? Is that a standard for this medium?
My HP COCO MIX HAS THIS. IT SAYS ,should be a good mix??

Yes optimum ph for coco is 5.8, 5.6 to 6.0 being the range you should stay in.

Would you recommend one for each plant. And is this a good way of judging? I have one for my lemon tree and it seemed to be a great indicator. You rock man!
I was starting to worried, because my ph meter read that amount seems ill be needing ph up often enough. I heard if you cut the distilled water with tap itll raise your ph? What do you use for a water source.
Naw, don’t want to leave them in there (I assume you’re talking about the moisture meter) as they’ll corrode eventually, just need one and check the plants with it.

Yeah, before the last watering I snuggled it down in there, read middle of dry. Works well enough.
I have a few left over from purchase? Best storage?
Depends on your tap, but it’s hard to ph straight distilled or RO water as they don’t contain enough of anything to actually maintain a ph, Can mix in a little tap to it then ph adjust it using ph up/ph down and a digital ph pen. I use RO water.

Not a bad price for a setup? And better than average drinking water. No more water bottles!!
What’s your brand.
I just buy RO water, there are RO water machines located all around my neighborhood, fill a 5 gallon water bottle for a dollar. I used to have a RO filter and may buy another one but so easy to just buy the RO water around here.

Would any one mind letting me know what this could be on one of my plant please. It has slight bronzing on the leaves

Oh boy, if u find out pls let me know!!! I have had that as well as other types of yellowing and when I google it am told that it could be overwatering, or underwatering, or nute burn or nute deficiency, or too close to the light or maybe the leaves are getting older. Perhaps the moon is in the 7th house and Jupiter aligns with Mars!! I figured id never know. But maybe with ur question there is hope!

This guy knows what’s up!
So I got my kilowatt meter today and I’m in the tent messing with the ballast on my spider spider farm 4000 LED light I was adjusting to Lo on both ballast they’re not all the way to the max at all I say I have each meanwell driver at about 85% up on the Lo adjustment I seen you could turn that part all the way up but I have the Aloha Justman at about 85% on both drivers which is pushing my amps right now at 5.37, which puts me at 500 watts now you could go up over 520 and it’ll start flashing on you. So I turn both the Loz back down to about 85% which puts my wattage output at 500 watts I just wanted to see what their life could do so now because this is my first time I’m going to turn the wattage all the way down so what would you think would be sufficient about a hundred, 150 watts and I’m only saying that because I seen the one light that you had inside that Gorilla Glue tent when they were seedling was I believe 125 watts so with this LED light do you think that that would be suffice
