Determining ph, what methods do you use? pens, litmus paper, etc.

How do you fine people get your ph where you want it. I used to use the yellow throw aways, but want to step up my game. Suggestions please.

    • I used to use those to but changed over to a ph pen a few years back. You can get a ph pen off of Amazon for under 20 bucks and they are great. They are really easy to calibrate and use. The only thing I would recommend is when you decide to buy one, actually buy 2. I have had a couple go bad on me and it is really nice to have a backup.

      • Redundancy on ph is TOTALLY worth it. Or just pay attention so you don't have to rely on the meters so much.1.0 is a lot on the ph scale.ie:5.5-6.5 eyeball it if you will.

        A lot of ways to do it . But I would buy a bottle of PH indicator solution just in case you need to double check. $10 .

        • ive always used drops. pH drops. They never go out of calibration. Period. 

          i even used to service some 20 gallon aeroponic systems and i used drops with them too!
