Hey I use the one from amazon for $15.99cad and it’s called lumo-x. And if you need a PPM meter they have vivosun brand combo set for $26.99cad. Hope that helps and happy growing

Hey...Grow Diaries...What is going on?
What is up with this web site. Shuts down Friday and starts up on Monday. Is someone having a long weekend every weekend? Has this site been hacked? Should I be concerned because you have some personal info of mine? Can you tell us what's going on so we are not so concerned?

serious question about VPD value in the tent
I'm not sure which values I should consider more important, or both. I have one sensor about 10cm above the Canopy and one sensor directly below it. I am trying to keep the VPD optimal in this grow, but which one is the "right" one?

Inkbird
I bought a inkbird itc 308s to control temperature. In heat plug I put a little heater, but in cold? I was thinking to connect extractor, but until now in my grow the extractor was always on, from 1st day of veg to last day. So, should I connect something to cold plug or not?

What should be plugged into the digital timer?
Currently, I have the timer plugged into the wall outlet, then to the powerstrip, but this doesn't seem feasible. I have lights, exhaust, fan, and humidifier connected to the powerstrip, so everything shuts off when the timer is off. Is this the norm?

Reducing PPM without changing water in hydro
Thanks all for guidance on my previous question. As a follow up, can PPM be lowered by reducing feeding until they hit the right range? Currently 1500ppm but seems this is too high. Currently following the AdvancedNutrients plan.
