i've got several grows under my belt some turned out fantastic and others kinda suffered a little. my biggest problem has been with ph (im a dirt farmer)my tap water changes so much it is hard to keep up with. i have used the drop test kits with varied success over the years and have tried a few different ways to adjust the ph of my water. im at the point of disgust with this round. tap water has been jumping around from 7.5 to 8.5 all summer. i do let my water stand for a day or 2 before using it to make an attempt at cooking off some of the junk the water co. dumps in. i also run the water through a filter on my faucet.(not r/o) i am looking in to purchasing a ph meter and some up and down. my test drops work ok but i need to check run off. i have looked at a lot of meters and read some reviews and it seems most like the oakton meters. funds are tight but i dont like wasting money on junk just to save a few bux. this is not a thread about the best meters or any thing like that and please no bickering over meters. just your opinion on what you have used. thanks and happy growing:hippy:
