thanks guys....that was just extremely frustrating....come home and see that..... dont have any pic's cause i took the leaves off.....they were all crispy.looks just same as previous pics of my problem ! today i sat back analyzed my situation...i look back at some notes i keep... first i was feed, feed, feed instead of feed water water feed..that might be some....and temps have been in the 85~90 range and RH is @ 34%.to solve my temp prob i think i will get an ac unit....and do the F,W,W,F schedule and go from their.. I did flush when i came home, they were bone dry

Hey man... I don't know where you are looking for meters, but they ALL have ppm.

I looked at DiscountHydro.com (not where I shop, but a populart site). They have 12 different meters and every single one of them measures ppm.

I'm not really sure what you are talking about, but I think you are just mistaken. They all (or at least 95%) have ppm readings.

Just decide how much you want to spend and buy one for that price. The more you spend the better meter. The less you spend the faster you are going to need an expensive meter to replace the peice of crap you just bought.

I don't know if anyone is going to tell you an exact meter to get except a salesperson, and they will just tell you to get the most expensive.

The pretty much are all worth what you spend.

And also, I think between the temps and humidity that's a tough environment for clones/ new plants. Maybe cut one of the lights off till they are bigger??? Or even two of the lights???

And humidifiers are cheap and easy to run... it's the dehumidifiers that get expensive and a pain.

Just be sure to calibrate the PH meter like once a week, the cheaper the meter, the more calibration it needs on a regular basis.

Just get a couple bottles of 4.0 ph and 7.0 ph calibration solutions, works for me.

And if ur clumsy, might wanna get a water proof one, sucks to drop ur pen in the res.

ok i looked at that site u said.......PPM must be automatic.cause they dont say that they do that !! and i have looked at Hanna website itself......Planetnatural.....Professional equipment and almost every website that google pulls up for PH meters !!!and u say cut lights till bigger........their 45 days old...........the shortest one is 12 in tall ...and how tall do they get in flower......how tall do most of you start flower ???

Heres a link at planet holywood in bozeman for a nice meter.

http://www.planetnatural.com/site/hanna-combo-tester.html

I bought both of mine on ebay for a total of about 50 bucks. This is the one that i wanted but costs were an issue. They have worked well. This one does temp-ph-ppm/tds

ive yet to get a meter... wuts yall opions on that... i guess it would be nice to know where my tap water sit in regards in intial salt content..ibet high as shit..but ive been much more conservative about nutes these days.....and figure some of the fancy gagets ...well there just like new ipods and cellphones...more junk for my shelf. alhtough i know a ppm meter would be helpful for sure... is it really worth it for the poor old organic soil guys?
