Thanks fellers - Am I correct that I want the PH around 6 - I do have the strips, a pool type tester, and a cheap ebay one too. I guess I am on the right path. Thanks again
JMichael said:So you're saying that just like different plants may like different PH levels, they also may want different nutrient levels and that's what you are checking with the PPM meter, the amount of fertilizer/nutrients in the water? Or it's basically a way of checking the ratio of fertilizer/nutrients to water?
And if the above is correct, then all the PPM is telling you is the ratio of nutrients to water but that does not necessarily mean you have the correct parts (ie nitrogen, potassium) that that particular plant may want?
