answered grow question 4y ago
5 times a day at 15 minute drip times is what I use to do with good results. Depends on how much water comes out of your drippers. There are ways to figure it out. Sure if you look online you will find the calculation

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?

Where do you guys measure your temp in your tents? I was wondering, because my readings vary up to 5°. Number 1 is currently at 20.3 °C (68F) where as probe number 2 is at 23°C (73F). Which one of those can i trust more?

RH 90% during Flowering!
I have a problem with RH. I am at the 3rd week of Flowering and I'm struggling to keep my RH down. Today it was 90% when I opened the grow box. I have access only to a window. Is it better to suck air inside or blow the exhausted air out? I can't do both

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?
