Check my truncheon?

[RobbieGanjaSeed]

Hey there, just dragging out the bits and peices of equipment I have been sensible enough to hang onto, and I'm just wondering how to check if my truncheon is still ok?

 

I always rinsed it religously when I used it, I took the batteries out when I stored it, and just now cleaned the sensors the way i read someone mention to do so in a thread the other day. I.e. gently with some creame cleanser.

 

I havea roll of litmus tape, so I can check my PH meter against that , but what about the truncheon? i just tested some tap water and it was about 200, but I guess that's a variable, but sounds familair.

Imean I'd just buy another one, but I'm dreadfully broke and wil lhave to get by for a while with what I have.

 

Any ideas?

 

thanks heaps

They never wear out .. do they .. well if you put it in distilled water an doesnt register then add some table salt to the water and should start to register ... isnt that what they do, measure dissolved salts guess the plant will soon let ya know ..

 

200ppm does sound familiar on the tap .. i think

Hey robbie, you can buy some conductivity solution(around $10) to check your truncheon with from any hydro shop if your worried, but sounds like you knew how to look after it so it should work like a beauty. 200 out of the tap sounds ok, my tap water reads 300. Good luck with your grow mate.

my tap watyer doesnt get a mention on the truncheon

just get some cal fluid to be safe i reckon

all the best
