Virgin Ground And The Little Star Asterion

How long did it last?

Almost 2 years. 1st one kicked when I dunked it the first week. I never calibrated it. It's pretty darn close under 200ppm, maybe 1-2%, and around 1000ppm it widens to about 5%. I rarely go that hot. It bugs the crap out of me that I can't calibrate it. I will spring for another soon, just not a priority. If I was going to try a new medium, I would be in more of a hurry.
 
Didn't keep calibration for 8 hrs. Poop. Then only threw error messages.

I asked for a refund. We'll see.
 
At least I have my trusty pH drop kit. How are you doing today?

Well that sucks sorry virgin ! Hopefully you can get refunded !
 
I can't see that I'm doing it wrong. It had a calibration check mark last night. Not this morning though. I am going to do the whole process again. I put brand new batteries in it also.
 
My blue pen holds about a week with variance +.1, but I re-calibrate every sunday jic.

Maybe also flip an email to the manufacturer and tell them you have an older pen that won't hold calibration past 8 hours, do they have a replacement program....might be a 20 buck swap or something. Worth a try.
 
I'll try that. Worst they can say is no. If he gives my money back, I was able to find a new one for $57. Looking at the apera for the same price though. Replaceable probe is kinda a great feature on the apera.
 
Well, they are 37 days from flip.

My garden guardian. Never seen a frog with so much junk in the trunk.
 
They are a bit yellow at the tops. I think maybe too much P or light bleaching.

I'm able to send pH meter back. I'll only be out $7. Shopping for a new one.

Looking fantastic

Thanks. I am a picky mother though. While they are struggling just a tad. I have to admit that they make my first harvest look really crappy.

I just want to do a good job on my seed review. Good job = free seeds. At the same time they say they are good for beginner growers. I am indeed that. All I can do is prepare and try my best.

Did you kill the wabbit ( amnesia haze), yet?
 
I use koolbloom in flower for P, seems to work good

Baby Haze is still trying to survive

Gonna just let her go while I'm gone, see what happens
 
wow :goodjob:

Not familiar with the apera, how much is a replaceable probe?

The beauty of 'my' bluepen is that it always errors .1 up. I recalibrate every week, and when I place it in 7 solution, it usually reads 7 or 7.1. I find this beautiful because if I shoot for 6.5 on the pen, I know my mixes are hitting the plant with a predictable wild swing of 6.5-6.6.

IDK if they all error that way, if they do, that is a brilliant design.

The probe is $35-$40. I just don't know. I'll either get two really cheap ones or a more expensive one. Not sure yet. I have a bit to figure it out. I have no problem paying for quality. apera are very good instruments.
