It's good to hear you had to try different stuff Z. I was beginning to think you were born with the knowledge.
I have friends who come over and check them for me. I can set them up for about 10-12 day's with out touching them. But that depends on the cycle they are in. Early in veg and after the first week of flower I'm good to leave them for about 10-14 day's. Those are the slower periods where Ph is the most important and the nutrients are not as strong so you don't need to watch them as closely as other times in the cycle.

My knowledge comes from many years of failure. With out failure you will not have true knowledge. "One must fall and get back up many times before he can learn to run faster." I also have a very extensive book collection, as well as the ability to learn from reading, then pushing and challenging what they said and seeing for my self. I had an opportunity in the early to mid 70â??s to spend summers in Humboldt with friends. I spent several weeks helping them plant, care fore and then harvest many, many times.

That was a very long time ago.
