I'm using the Hanna Gro-Check combo it does PPM, EC, Temp, and PH .
Very accurate I have a cheap PH/PPM pen as a back up and my Hanna Gro-check gives a real precise reading. Just expensive and the probes are like 100 bones to replace. The gro check is about 250 brand new.

i had ordered 10, .3 gallon air pots but then wished i had ordered 20. i contacted the company asking if i could add some! they were cool with it and i just ordered another 10 for no additional shipping!

it's the small things in life...

No not in the Phoenix area. If I were to grow outside I would probably do a autoflower strain.
it sucks that they only allow greenhouse grows. i'm thinking those things would get ridiculously hot in the phx area! i saw a real nice outdoor grow somewhere between here and flagstaff back in the olden days. 2 guys camped out there for the whole grow. that's hard living but worth it in the end! :)

so its all good to grow outdoor the heat or the cold nights wont kill em?

In the Phoenix area its hard to grow outdoor thats why I suggested planting a Auto Flower Seed the plant will start to go into 12/12 very quickly unlike a regular or feminized seed.

Yeah it can be done if you are in the cooler areas of AZ like Payson plus you have a lot of vegetation out there to hide your guerrilla grow.

Yeah, I think he is sleeping now though. Jayco420 is his name on here. I was talking to him about it before. He MIGHT have some outside now I think, not too sure on that.

Well hopefully this is the beginning for Arizona! My seeds just showed some leaves today and I already can't leave them alone! Hopefully we won't have to be so secretive some day
