Kimcj’s First Grow

Troubleshooting

I moved the oscillating fans to the other side where the intake is. I have the a/c on in the house although it’s 67 outside :laughing:.
I plan on getting a large dehumidifier for the lung room instead of small ones for the tents.

Will be counterproductive at times when I need to run a humidifier in the closet :roll_eyes:. But i figure cheaper than running the central air until the furnace is needed :laughing: . Seems like maybe a month in the fall and spring

In the meantime i can open the lung room door and even the tents.

Hubby is on the hunt for a larger humidifier :+1:… so much so he was on his phone looking while i was trying to get him to hand me a fan cord to thread through the tent

Sounds like a good plan. Hubby can easily build the humidifier himself. It’s very simple. Here’s how to make it.

I can show you where to buy the parts for 3/4 less than the website they suply

I was just thrown it out there. If you took the lid off my humidifier turned it on for 2 minutes the entire room would look like a Van Halen concert

I did a mild defortation yesterday to improve airflow. (They call it lollipop or tea bag or something)

Lights came on at 6:00 a.m. but she appears to still be sleeping at 11am I’m going organic with her. But my son stopping by the aquarium later to get some crickets. Hopefully she’ll be up by then

Ok guys and gals. Sorry to get back so late on this investigation into the EC and PPM calibration discussion we had weeks back… this is specifically for the people who have purchased the 5 in 1 tds meter per my recommendation.

Screenshot_2024-10-03-19-19-43-976

Our questions were…

Q: are we a single point or multiple point calibration. We are a single point calibration. This means we only need to calibrate with one solution.

Q: what calibration solution do we need to purchase?
1413 μS/cm

Q: do we need to calibrate both EC and PPM separately purchasing separate calibration solution?
No, calibration of the EC with 1413 μS/cm vocalibrate automatically the EC - PPM - SALT functions all at one time.

Q: how do we calibrate it once we have the solution?
Below are the instructions and also a video.

Note:
Calibrating the EC and the ph is very important to the accuracy of our readings when we’re communicating with our plants. Were only is accurate and caring for our plants as our meter is!

I hope this helps

Batteries new or newer?
Change them and Then calibrate, IMO.
