I have an mw102 and I am very satisfied with it. For the money, it's definitely the best option.
I really prefer the handheld ph testers with the detachable probe over a PH pen.
Many say they are more reliable than the pens too.
The cheapest similar Bluelab device is $257 + $10 shipping. EDIT: Found an older model on amazon for $160. I'd still choose mw102 over this personally.
The Mw 102 is $122 with free shipping anywhere in the USA.
Less than half the cost, with added functions.
I was quite stoned when I got my MW 102 in the mail and noticed some crusty substance on the tester. I thought maybe it froze and was damaged the temps that week were well below freezing every day. Rather stupid of me to not even take the probe out of the solution before emailing with pictures to inquire. I emailed their support and they replied very quickly and were extremely helpful. Turns out it was completely fine and it was just a small leak of the storage solution that the probe was shipped in.
So the Milwaukee Instrument support is killer is all I'm saying. I've never dealt with Bluelab support though, maybe they are just as good?
Milwaukee instruments also seems to be a smaller company that focuses on the growing and brewing markets which I really like.
Anyway, sorry to ramble, I am quite stoned at the moment too lol.
If you are growing in soil, try out Growers Recharge. This stuff works wonders in soil, and if I ever grow soil again I will 100% be using it.
It makes growing a bit more newbie-friendly. Their claim is better-looking plants in 48 hours, and I can honestly say, it's always held true for me.
Bright green plants like yours were looking darker and healthier 24 hours after. I always struggled with burnt leaf tips when growing soil too, as soon as I started using Growers Recharge I got the beautiful green leaves from stem to tip.
Try out the Growers Recharge, and you'll have a healthy plant ready to clone in no time.

Raise pH. Peat has a natural pH of 3-4.5. All bought soils comes amended with lime to combat this. If you haven't reamended the soil with lime you have to raise pH of the feeding solution accordingly.
You're probably also overfeeding, most common problem starting out. In veg I feed 0.3-0.4 EC to my mom's in peat based mix at about pH 7.5.

Probably this. @Cigarz you are feeding nutes and adding extra CalMag? Why? An excess of one can lock out the other.
