I got my first pH pen over 20 years ago.
The first pH meter was constructed in 1934.

If you grow in hydro problem pH will cut your yield down to nothing or just kill the plants. Maybe it doesn't matter in soil, but it does in water.

so pretty much ph depends on how much your plants can intake threw stable ph levels

Basically, It has to be in a range where the nutrients are available to the plants.

you flush when you plants have 2 weeks flowering left and with plain water add a couple oz's of sugar or molasses to it
this is basic knowledge you should have read when you learnt to grow pot

you are right for the most part it matters in water thats about it
PH is VERy important in hydro. Ive killed very nice grows by not checking the ph level for bout a month. I mean its really not hard to check and balance it out and the equipment u can get under 30$ off ebay. SO y not spend the extra lil cash and have way nicer yields 
happy growing.
happy growing.

SURVIVING IS NOT THRIVING
You might not see the difference in soil like hydro, but there is. Say you water your plants with a mix of nutes. The next time you give it just water. There could be a fluctuation of 4 to 5 points on the ph scale. Before I add nutes my city water RO'd is at 9.4, after I add nutes it goes down to 4.5. Thats 50 TIMES more acidic than before I added nutes. Do that to your plants and I think it is safe to say you will undoubtedly underachieve. They might survive but they will not thrive......

I drain down my tanks every 10 days, when i refill them the water and nuits have been pre made and have sat for around 2 days, never had a PH pen in my life, i understand it all depends on where you live in the world, and in scotland we have some of the very best water in the world, cannabis seem to love it.
