Hey everyone,

This is my second grow and I noticed something odd. 5 Gal bucket, bubbleponics system. Today I came home and checked the ph inside of the res and it had dropped by 1.0 this seemed weird so I started checking the ph all around the bucket and noticed something. If I check inside the root ball I get one ph, if I check were I can see open water I get another ph, if I check near the edge I get a completely different ph. Now if I take a cup of water out of the bucket I get a completely much higher PH (this ph stays stable no matter weere in the cup I check it. Im using two calibrated ph meters. Which PH should I go by? I searched and couldnt come up with an answer. Thanks.​
