Wonderful. Will just grab a cheapo one.
Mate they work just as good and last just as long as more expensive for a fraction of cost.

Hit the local hydro shop today to pick up a few bits.
Image cheapo PH pen.
Calibrated it and cut a bit of sponge for the cap to soak up some ph storage soloution.

Went with the 2 pot autopot system with 47ltr res

Still need to get some PH up and down and the bloke in the shop recomended an air stone or small water pump in the res to keep water circulating.

Other than the ph up and down and the water pump, would you guys recommend anything else? What am i missing? Any tips for setting up?

Getting excited about this.

Thanks all

Same as mine from Amazon was under £20, a very nice bit of kit for price as well imo and it measures water temps and EC too. So whats the PH storage solution all I've ever done with these tools is rinse end and fill cap with water before replacing it so probes are always sat in water kinda thing. Its always worked well doing that but i could be tempted to buy some depends on price. Cheers mate.

Think i paid £4.95 for that bottle.
Watched a couple videos about calibrating the ph pen and most suggested it. Figured, for less than a fiver, whats the harm. :idn:
