got another question for you all.

my NEW truncheon goes up to ec/cf of 52 , the strength of my nutes is way above this and has been like this since the start of flower. its a long story but al cut it short lol, the bluelabs truncheon i bought years ago needs calibrated or put in the fekin bin n didnt realise till it was too late.
was giving me a reading of almost half of wot it shudov been reading.

i cant even believe i rooted my clones in a cf/ec of 42. its amazin they took off lol.
but they did and still to this day are all living.
how can i possibly find out wot the nute strength actually is.???

my tap water reads zero on my truncheon so say if i added (exactly) 1 litre of the nutrient solution to (exactly) 1 litre of tap water wud this actually half the cf/ec reading.?????

my plants are lovin the strength of the nutes n dont have any burn or disorders, my hustlas widow is 4wks into flower and the cheese n lemon skunk are 2wks into flower.

ide like to know what the ec/cf level is coz there drinkin loads of water each day and its been a guessin game for the last few wks as to wots goin on in the rez.

any help wud be much appreciated coz if i dnt watch wot im doin i will lose em all peeps.

thanx

CRITIK THANX M8 AND NO WORRIES . THANX FOR POPPIN IN M8.

THIS MIGHT OFFEND THE NUMPTIES THAT LEFT STUPID REMARKS , I WUDOV WROTE SUMFIN NICE BUT NOW AM NO GONA BOTHER.

any1 wi brains and KNOWLEGE ON HYDRO wud know wot i WAS TALKIN ABOUT. NLXSK1 -- IF IT WAS UR PROB N NO1 LEFT INFO YOU WUD DO THE SAME. , ESP IF YOU THOUGHT IT CUD BE SERIOUS., and NICK if ud bothered to read the post ud of seen i said (MY NEW TRUNCHEON) WHICH MEANS I DNT HAVE THE OLD 1.


the nute strength is more than the new truncheon measures.
AND IT DOESNT MATTER WOT NUTES UR UZIN M8, NO NUTES OUT THERE SHUD BE ANYWHERE NEAR A CF OF OVER 52 OR EC OF 5.2. IF YOU HAD EXPERIANCE YOU WUD KNOW THIS.!!!!!! most nutes peak around 2.0 ec / 20cf..... MAYBE UL UNDERSTANT THIS ITS WAY WAY ABOVE A PPM OF 3640........

if my new truncheon only goes up to cf OF 52 / EC 5.2 and the nute strength is way way over that then how do i tell wot its sittin at!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thats y i asked if i was to add 1 litre of water to 1 litre of solution wud this half the nute strength.

i read the whole post smart guy and like i said you make very little sense. i still stand by my original post of throw the broken meter away or calibrate it one or the other. if you are geting ec readings of over 5.4 and your plants arent burning up, well with a little common sense one would be able to put together that the truncheon is WRONG or ANYONE WITH BRAINS ON HYDRO, OR GROWING AT ALL WOULD KNOW THAT.

well smart arse , my OLD TRUNCHEON was frm bluelabs it goes up to an ec of 3.2 (MAX). when i dip it in the rez it goes off the scale. the new truncheon that i bought was a cheap version and itdoes the exact same m8 IT MAX'S AT 5.2 EC.
so i think ur the one without experiance. ive been growing for 9 years so dnt gimme that crap.!!!!!!

i use vitalink max grow/bloom and im adding 240ml each part to my "20 litre" nft tanks, YES THATS RIGHT( 240ML EACH PART) IN !!!20 LITRE TANKS!!!!!!,,,,, get that up you. AND LIKE I SAID , NO BURN....

its ppl like you that give places like this a bad name m8.

in fact m8 , here's a list of everythin am addin to my 20LITRE TANKS.

VITALINK MAX @ 240ML EACH PART , INCASE YOU DNT UNDERSTAND LOL (THATS 480ML OF NUTES GOIN INTO A 20 LITRE TANK)
4 DROPS OF HESSI SUPER VIT
40 ML OF POWERZYME (BY HESSI)
30ML OF HESSI'S ROOT COMPLEX
20ML LIQUID SILICONE
2.5-3.0ML PH DWN


DOES THIS REALLY SOUND LIKE IM USIN A FUK'D TRUNCHEON. IF YOU ADDED ALL THAT TO A 20LITRE TANK , OFCOURSE ITS GONA READ OFF THE SCALE. ANY1 WITH ANY SENCE WUD KNOW THAT M8.

HENCE THE REASON I ASKED IF I WAS TO ADD I LITRE OF PLAIN TAP WATER TO 1 LITRE OF NUTE SOLUTION WUD THIS HALF THE NUTE STRENGTH SO I CUD TELL WHERE ITS BEEN SITTING.

WASNT TOO MUCH TO ASK M8, BUT INSTEAD ALL I GOT WAS YOU TRYIN TI SAY AM TALKIN SHIT.

ITS BEEN A BIG DEBATE OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS THAT PPL HAVE BEEN AND ARE STILL UNDER FEEDING THERE PLANTS.

JUST COZ U EXP BURN DOESNT MEAN TO SAY OTHERS DO.

START AS YOU MEAN TO GO ON.

MY UNROOTED CLONES USUALLY START AT A EC OF 12-14 BUT AS THE BLUELABS TRUNCHEON WASNT GIVIN ME THE CORRECT EC READING I WAS ACTUALL ROOTING THEM IN A SOLUTION THAT READS EC/42 ON THE NEW TRUNCHEON.
AND THIS IS WHY IM UP SO HIGH NOW M8.

ive taken pics so you all can see what im ravin on about.
both old and new truncheons go off the scale when there put in the nutrient solution.

and yet again all i get is dafty's poppin in n talkin crap. just coz u aint experianced a high cf/ec level doesnt mean it aint impossible.

or it cud just be that uz aint got the balls to feed more than it says on the bottle lmao.



so again peeps my question is = if i add 1 litre of 0ec/cf tap water to 1 litre of nutrient solution - will this half the actual strength.
its so i can get to know the ACTUAL EC/CF reading in the tank.??????


if all you gota say is daft stuff then dnt waste ur time coz am not interested.

i know the bluelabs truncheon is knackered coz i added vitalink max @ 3-4ml each part to 1 litre of water and it registered way less than it shudov, say an ec/cf reading of 9...... when i did the same with the new truncheon it read everything correct like it says on the bottle.

and your still tellin me im talkin shit. lmfhao @ you simpletons

Where have you come up with 240ml for each part?

And to answer your question on 1 liter of each to dilute, well try it i scale and see what happens..

See, this is my point...

If he had bothered to include the TYPE AND AMOUNT OF NUTES in the first place we could have showed him his GLARING ERROR in the first place...
