What would you say this ph is?

[Username85]

I use a drip kit to test my ph and I could use another set of eyes if you’d be so kind (I fucking hate drip tests for this reason lol)

Buy a digital meter.

Hold the vile up to the color chart, and move back and forth until it matches. Hard to say from two separate pics.

Thinking closer to 5 then 7 but better pics would help.

What do we win if we are the closest without going over?

 

[Kushash]

6.175

 

[McShnutz]

I agreed with mudballs.

Urine trouble if you will be posting every pH picture for help. Get a meter, save everyone the trouble.

Guessing about 5.5

 

[MickFoster]

Definitely over 6.0.......my guess around 6.5.

Lol I’ve been staring at vials for weeks second guessing where I’m at. Haven’t had any noticeable ph issues, but finally broke down and had to get another opinion. I’ve picked up several different digital meters and after supposedly calibrating them I could never get a consistent reading. Although this is its own special brand of pain in the ass I figured it was more failsafe

Once i figured out my feed mix i stopped measuring except like once a month to make sure nothing changed.

I wasn’t checking ph at all in the beginning, was under the impression soil will buffer. Started having some random spotting/crunchy spots so started checking, my water comes out at 8+ so might have been good to start checking.

The same as my urine

You may need to drink more water

 

[PeatPhreak]

I drink plenty of water. I just need to urinate more often.

If this is your run off? If so, it's gonna be different than what's going on in your root zone... hence why you need a digital direct soil probe meter for accuracy. If you're dry root zone is at lets say 6, and you pump in 6.5 , the run off may read 6 still, or lower depending on how your particular medium buffers it. Too many variables with run off testing.

You check the pH of your urine. Freak.

Hey!.. don't be hating! LOL!.. when I first got my Apera, I tested all kinds of shit... btw, my urine was 8.3

Hold the bottle in front of the chart it came with and match it....just like a paint swatch on a wall.
Same light same color, don't be looking back and forth to match.

Pretty sure he knows the process... His color matching skills are the question.
