Hidey Fokes! I bought this meter last week, 2RE, and it measures WAY differently from the color chart on the GenHydro test kit, and the eyeballs I've been using. At testing liquids, the meter I received shows very alkaline, about +2 differently from the color chart BUT at root level .... it measures at the levels I've been feeding and watering. I haven't tried the water coming OUT, as StinkyAttic suggests, yet, but I will. I fed them yesterday and ph'd using the color chart and they still look great. Can't say I'm gonna change what I've been doing 'cause I really don't have much faith in that meter. I do understand the 'you get what you pay for' concept, too. heh hehOf, I recently bought one of these and though I continue to look for signs and keep track of feeding, this kinda helps me judge that maybe they don’t need as much water as I might like to give them...and you can see what’s happening at different levels in the pot...no substitute for experience but another tool to help... so far I’ve only used the moisture part of the meter...I think there is another model that only does moisture...

meters need to be calibrated to be of any use
