New Grower: Excited To Learn

I use a ton of hanna stuff for a fairly large saltwater aquarium hobby. Their stuff is top notch, but you must calibrate pens often, and or use their reactants, store vials in ro water when not in use, etc.

Regardless of the price and accuracy of the item, it's worthless if you don't use untainted check fluids pretty much every time to calibrate.

So, read up first.

Its a great book. It has a lot of different ideas on a lot of different disciplines. One thing it taught me is to look at nutrient deficiencies and excesses by first looking to see if the problem is a mobile or immobile nutrient issue. This is the single strongest way to find the root cause (not to pun) of an issue. Once you understand how that works your nutrient reading will be much much easier. For that reason alone the book is worth it, but this is just one part of a 590 page book. Buy it

Vials that are used for certain instruments hanna makes are required to be stored in acidic RO water. IDK about pens. My blue pen says do not store in RO.

So, don't do what people say, just read and follow their instructions.

Hanna makes a storage solution. You really only need it when its not being used for a long amount of time. My meter is in it now. But if you use it a few times a week a damp piece of paper towel in the cap will keep the pen hydrated. The cap must stay on when not in use.
 
Thanks both of you I will read and reread the instructions and I will be on the phone with support from hanna before I use it and will follow instructions for how to store it safely and properly.
 
Wow I am wickedly worn out I went to Walmart and then I came home and then wheelchaired up to the bank and then too Kroger's for groceries both places are 1/2 miles away and then came home and put everything away then cleaned the apartment took the dog out and now I'm smoking a nice blunt and going to melt in my recliner and pass the hell out LoL
 
Wow crashed hard it just sucks 4 hours is all my body will let me sleep before the pain kicks in, woke up and took my baby for a walk and let her chase the squirrels and cat's LoL just setting back in the recliner and doing research and reading Journals
