Yes getting a ph meter is very helpful. I would recommend staying away from the really cheap ones. You get what you pay for rings true.

Will excessively aerating and circulation change the PH?
I have a reservoir which holds my nutrients until they need to be used. Recently I had added in a pump for circulation in addition to my air stone. Since then my solution has been rising to over 7 within a few hours. I adjust back down and it goes back up again? What the heck?

Light or nutrient burn?
Ive been having yellow tips on the tops of both my plants for some time now, I already raised the light up a bit higher than the maximum height the manufacturer recommends, but Im still having the yellow tops. Could this be nutrient instead of light burn?

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).
After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200. I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new). Should I increase EC of the feeding water? I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.

Mix Dynomyco in water?
I’m about to water my plant today. I haven’t used any Dynomyco since she’s been transplanted in this 5 gallon fabric pot. Can I mix in some Dynomyco in my water and apply it like that or should I just top dress a little and then just water the medium? Happy growing!

Toxicity and pH issues.
I'm pretty sure I have to much nitrogen in my soil and I think the pH is maybe neutral but I need to know how to test the soil. Should I flush her again and with how much? I also think she's beginning to flower 😉. 5 weeks old tomorrow. Help a newbie out again ☺️
