Finally got hold of a second hand bluelab truncheon meter (big sucker).
When I tested my AG it was off the chart.
I dumped the rez, and filled back up with tap water that is bit high on alkaline side, 6.7-6.8. Although the EC was very low, as I started to try and bring the PH down, the EC shoots up from below 1 to about 2.0 2.2, adding nutrients this goes up again.
I know this question has been asked before, can anyone share a chart for a typical AG grow, 1 lowryder AK47 auto, what the PH/EC should be overtime. It's a big ask, I just need to better understand how to get the ideal growing soloution for my plant, or close enough to it.
I'm looking at also investing in a RO undersink unit, gonna try find a cheap one off ebay.
Also what is the best product to get your PH down without it raising the EC..it's all too hard
