EC, PH Meters & Solutions
When growing with hydroponics it is necessary to maintain your nutrient solution to the correct PH and EC levels, for your plants to obtain all of the nutrients that you have supplied in the water. An incorrect PH will affect the roots absorption of the nutrients and if it is too far out, your plants may receive none. An incorrect EC can be fatal, if it is to low or to high your plants will suffer and may die. A quality PH and EC meter will take away any guess work and allow your plants to perform at their best.
