Pulling the trigger on QB'S?

Spend more on ph meter, either mentioned would work. And the cheap amazon tds meter will do. It’s a little less critical.

Do you mean more than 50. Bucks?

Nah I think that apera one is around $40 but it’s a significantly better meter than a $20-$25 model.

Gotcha. The only thing worse than spending too much is spending too little.

What are you using now?

If you refer to ph… nothing… just ordered my 1st.

I think I get it now. Wasn’t " correcting" ph but rather other issues IE: poor lights, too small a pot, poor dirt, ect. Never delt with ph. Like I said I learned alot here and thru the 1st grow, at least enough to plug the big holes so to speak. Still learning a lot thanks to you guys and gals.

Nutes, sorry.

Not using any at point. Was figuring with the FFOF I wouldn’t need much if any till flowering. Am I mistaken on that???
