woah! thats some high salinity. lol where do u live xD


also, i dont know what you did, but im guessing that ur readings are just wrong. usually its best to calibrate the reader rather then just stick the freshly unpackaged reader into the water and measure whatever it reads out at first.

i forgot how one would do that though... sorry bout that i used to be an ocean specialist a few years ago i cant believe i forgot. give it a go at the search engine.

LOL my bad needed calibration and upon further review the water 7.0 the soil 6.9 ish. Can I give them any nutes? They are 1 month old tomorrow
