damn ive been wondering about one of these.
Noticed a bunch of posts lately about difficulty maintaining pH levels. My friend uses this and says its great. I havent seen anyone mention these types of units
SH Hydroponics > Automatic pH Controller Reservoir Kit
As plants grow they extract nutrients from the reservoir, in doing so, they raise the potential hydrogen (pH) of the solution. This is particularly pronounced with larger plants.
The Automatic pH Controller Reservoir provides the ultimate pH management solution. You can automatically set your pH level and let the pH controller automatically adjust the reservoir pH level whenever it rises above the set level.
Imagine, never having to check or adjust you pH, EVER!!!

everything i talk about post or say is false & a lie, just trying to fit in. all pics are from high times & are not of my own. thank u for your time.
stealth hydro is crap
GOOD reliable ph controllers are expensive and not practical if you have more than 1 or 2 res.
weve got the waterproof ppm & tds meters right now they work great havent had to recal.. since we got them 3 months ago. we check everymoring & correct but if we go away for a few days that would be a good thing to have handy.

It is not necessary to adjust the pH
if you have your solution properly buffered.
I can go for weeks without any adjustment,
after I have buffered my solution.
I just add plain RO,
with no pH adjustment,
and my pH is perfect at 5.6
There are four agents that you should use
in the correct combination
to get your solution to the proper state of buffer.
•Phosphoric acid
•Potassium Silicate
•Potassium Carbonate
•Potassium Hydroxide.
This can only be done with RO or Distilled water,
and a digital pH meter so you can maintain 5.6.
Use the P-silicate first,
and then the P-carbonate & P-hydroxide in combination.
It takes about four days of checking the pH,
at least twice a day,
to get the solution properly buffered,
depending on whether the mfg of the nutes
you are using has already buffered the nutes.
If you have unbuffered nutes,
then you may not need the Phosphoric acid.
Once you learn to buffer your solution
you will have less pH fluctuations.

damn i like that web site.
deff looks way better of a deal than buying 1 of those moduals for 1200$.
not 2 mention all the things the computer software is capable of.
thought i dont like the remote access deal from another location but im shure that is easily disabeld.
good find!![]()

hey i would like to hear some new info on auto ph controlers looks like this is a dead thread. is there any new hot cotroler out now?
I know I know, this is an old thread but come on, i've never seen this info anywhere before. Dude, are you serious? I've never heard that before, that would be so awesome! I've been manually checking them on 3 diff rez's everyday an its becoming a pain in the u know what!
Where do I get those products u mention? ie:
•Phosphoric acid
•Potassium Silicate
•Potassium Carbonate
•Potassium Hydroxide.
Does AN make them? and how much each do I add? your a lifesaver if you can save me from buying 3 separate automatic ph adjusters to handle this headache for me...
man if checkin and fixin your ph is such a hassel then why grow? is everything thing else going to be lackin attention? lol
