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

Can I use Smart Water to mix up ph powder calibration solutions?
Cant find deionized water where I live to mix up my ph powder solutions and be confident they are correct. I used generic distilled water before but later realized it was not neutral at 7.0 ph. So long story short google says Smart Water is 6.98 ph, Think I can use it instead?

Hi guys, got the transplant done today as suggested by Burmese. I have an issue after transplant: - My RH doesn't seem to go below 62% - Is this level bad for the plant? - What is the optimum RH and Temp for this strain? - Or average optimum temp and RH in general? Thank you :)

Set auto system for VPD or RH
I have AC Infinity set up. I am wondering whether I should have the humidity triggers set up for VPD or continue with RH triggers. So far I have it triggered when humidity gets a tad low. If I trigger for VPD, I think I will have to constantly check leaf temp. Thoughts?

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?

pH Pen Calibration Frequency?
How often should I re-calibrate my PH pen? I have a cheap Milwaukee pH600 and after 3 months of use it had drifted enough to cause real damage (was reading 5.8 when chemical drops read ~4.0). Alternatively, is there a reasonably priced option that would avoid this?
