Everything you bought are great investments. Blue lab rocks . Solid reliable info coming from the blue lab. You will need to buy the calibrating supplies as well. I calibrate mine monthly but i have herd others go longer than that.Update- greencure has pretty much eradicated the pm been hitting them with a ro peroxide spray for spot treatment between greencure applications, got the stuff to build 2 6 in intake filters to make sure ive got low restriction max airflow in and out, a nice deal on a tower fan on clearance at wally for 15 bucks, and my dehuey came in yesterday so now that PM is fucked and i hopefully wont lose any more prize nugs to budrot.View attachment 21626
Also smoked my ph meter last week so been flying blind for 6 days or so, it was a crappy 20$ vanktool but i treated it right and it lasted almost 2 yrs, i was slinging water off the tip and oops there she went into the hardwood floor at light speed lol ive heard nothing bad about these so its what i went with feel like i gained a new cool toy View attachment 21627
No I use the GH stuff it's cheaper. Bluelab has been great to me. I got the F&D fever too lol good stuff manWas wondering do i have to buy the bluelab calibration stuff or is my gh good enough, i calibrated that cheap pen every 2 weeks it got me 1 time when i first started was about.7 off but i caught it quick lol
Its almost like an addiction hahaAnd i curse @HydroRed in the nicest manner lol had a moment of extreme bakedness at blowes and ended up at home with this stuff
20 mins later 1 completed 27g hydrored flood and drain, the mini one i built is rocking out those little "glues" so had to go full size, gonna build 2 more here soon for my planned chucking tent thanks again for posting that red
Lol yea I wanna build everything I see.Its almost like an addiction haha
I use the GH brand as well for all my calibrations. Been working reliably for yrs and its cheaper than any other brand. I go about every month or so and usually find around a .2 difference when I calibrate.
I think my 7.0 and 4.0 solution is a GH product. My cleaning solution and the 2.77EC solution also the storage solution all come from Blue Lab. Probably cheaper places to buy thoughWas wondering do i have to buy the bluelab calibration stuff or is my gh good enough, i calibrated that cheap pen every 2 weeks it got me 1 time when i first started was about.7 off but i caught it quick lol
I have the guardian meter with the two probes. I just have them in a jar with tap and it's always plugged in. Then I pull cups of sample water from each tote and test as needed. Do you think I really need the storing solution or will this work? Eventually I will be getting a meter or pens for easier mobility to check each tote and returning the guardian meter to be dedicated to the RDWC 24/7.I think my 7.0 and 4.0 solution is a GH product.

The storage solution will keep the probe in good shape for a longer time than tap water. It also has anti fungal/microbials in it to keep the nasties from growing in whatever you store them in. I'm sure my pH pen borked out after a year because I was storing it in tap water. Also even if I changed the water in the cap every time, slime would start forming on the plastic. Hasn't happened yet with the storage solution.I have the guardian meter with the two probes. I just have them in a jar with tap and it's always plugged in.
