    Recommends for a decent PH meter?

    What kind of rep does their ppm/ph both in one get here? https://www.amazon.com/Apera-GroStar-Replaceable-Double-Junction-Hydroponics/dp/B0BGQFPGMY?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1

    I've heard people just using RO or distilled water...not sure if that works or not. Thanks for posting that.

    How do you find it easier than just putting a prob into water? Just curious, thanks for sharing.

    Recommends for a decent PH meter?

    How much was it to replace? Also, looking at the ph60 it has a option of a glass probe or flat probe. What's the difference and which one did you get...

    Recommends for a decent PH meter?

    I'm needing a new PH meter and was wondering if there's any sub $100 that are decent quality that are accurate and have longevity? I assume a replaceable sensor model would be worthwhile. One a side note while I have a good PPM meter I'm curious if any of the all in one meters are any good or...

    Best alternatives to maxi line?

    Yes, the filter is to lower the ph. I do plan on getting a new ph meter soon and will make a thread on this for recommends. Another user on another forum mentioned this one...

    Best alternatives to maxi line?

    I generally mix five gallons at once but wouldn't have a issue getting a trash can and mixing 10 gallons or so.

    Best alternatives to maxi line?

    Been away for a few years and wanted to look into getting something going again. I generally grow in coco hempy buckets for the simplicity but at times like dwc when the winter comes around and helps keep the water cool. I've tried a lot of nutes; the dyna-gro and maxibloom were the best to me...

    cheap led strip heat sinks?

    I looked at that years ago when I built my first light, for me that is way too expensive. I used flatbar for like 1/5 of that price.

    cheap led strip heat sinks?

    That's what I did in the pics I posted above; I got those bars from metal depot or something like that for way cheaper than my local lowes and cut them down with a cutting wheel on my drimel sourced from harbor freight. I'm going to look local this time first. Say, what kind of aluminum is this...

    Looking for a driver recommendation.

    One thing I've been ruminating on is the fact that these sorts of strips I bought are custom made kinda like the kingbright etc. They are at 48V but from looking around 48V doesn't seem all that common or am I incorrect in this? My concern is if these strips don't work out or I want to move on...

    Looking for a driver recommendation.

    You know what I have a thread about heat sinks and there's a lot of people saying don't even worry about them. They say they never had a issue running their EB's at full power without sinks. I used aluminum to sink my last EB grow and they pulled out a lot of heat even at running them about 80%...

    Looking for a driver recommendation.

    Thanks for your input..well I already bought them. I got them on a flash sell for $13 a piece so hopefully they work out. They seemed to be similar to king bright which a lot of people seem to like. Also, I wasn't wanting to run them at 60w. The last EB strips I bought years ago, I've been away...
