      • its a nice piece to read but ''Four different meters test for nitrate, potassium, sodium, and calcium, and they sell for about $400 each.'' is not worth the effort for a simple grower i think if you want a so called kit, also the tests are almost $90 per test if they do it for you..

        And they say leaf tissue is old because when you notice anything it means its already happened but i dont see people do tests or let the lab do tests if they dont see any problems at that time...i mean i dont think people would do ''random'' tests just to make sure

        This tech could be good for a comercial grower but not for a simple home growing person with just a few plants

        • I agree completely, its a bit over the top for most of us. I did buy one of the sap PH meters, they are about $150 now and I check brix every week or more and I do see the relationship. You can have perfect sap PH but low brix, but you cant have high brix and deficiencies or toxicity in the feed mix. For me in hydro the brix is key to get that terp production up there and I have the Tinmans green thumb
