Ive said in other threads, now its about damn time to spread this message.
I CANNOT stress this enough to all you new growers.
If your going to buy soil, pots, seeds, lights and all that shit..
Why the hell not get a pH meter? Its the number one problem all growers face.
If its off by just a single point.. It can have salt build up, necrosis, chlorosis & false nutrient uptake.
Its strictly a MUST HAVE if your going to grow ANY type of plant.
I hate asking, "Whats the pH".. and they say I dont know.
Im not ranting, just applying simple knowledge for all the newbies. Im trying to help.
Look for one thats electical and can test soil AND water. Yes water has a pH aswell and that a whole nother ball game if the pH of water is off.
Yes plants grow and its part of mother nature, but its takes ALOT MORE CARE then just sowing the seeds and waiting.
Theirs botany involved. Look at my indepth nutrient guide for further more info on all the Macro and Micro nutrients.
It has the basic Botany info and if you get that down and buy a pH meter your going to be Succesful!
Thanks everyone for reading and have a terrific day!
Any questions ill love to answer.

If your using acheap one..clean your probes with alcohol and a scotch bright pad. Then in vinegar and scrub. Makes sure you meter moves. Calibration solution will tell you if its working. I had an old cheap one laying around and che ked it..it said the pH of vinegar was 7. Glad I wasn't using that ..LOL
