A kit isn't going to cut it, unles your nute mix is completely clear when added to the tube.... I doubt it

yeah I gotcha I am just saying that you shouldn't bother with those pH test kits with the drops and stuff
Your nutes when mixed to the water will change the color making the pH test kit worthless and inaccurate
What nutes are you using?

My advice would be to get a smaller power strip, maybe just use a 4 plug square one. That would give you more room, then you could stick that in the 5 1/2" bay and hang the lights lower. I prepped a case for a stealth grow and just ended up ripping out all the drive cages, for more room. You just have to cut off the heads or drill out the pop-rivets.








I didn't actually end up using the case, since I managed to get a closet grow going. So I still got the case collecting dust in my boiler room

There are no clear nutes hahaha
And if you are trying to say that you are staying away from nutes in general than just scrap this grow now
You should have nutes in the rez right now with it pHed to 5.9
No offense dude but you haven't even had a successful grow in soil yet... why don't you master that before growing hydro?
You don't have the necessary tools or knowledge to have a successful soil grow let alone a hydro grow
Not trying to be mean but your soil plants look bad and that is supposed to be easier than hydro
You should have done research before setting all this up... I hope it doesn't turn out to be a big waste of time

You are going to need a lot of velcro, those pumps are kinda heavy and are vibrating all the time....

No you should just scrap this grow and wait until you have a pH meter
Nutes claim to do a lot of shit that they never really do
Even with nutes that don't effect the pH you will still have to adjust it as the plant will eat more water to food or more food to water at some points during its life
It is not worth growing hydroponically without a pH meter, things will become a major pain in the ass without one

Well if the pump is too heavy you could use pipe straps and screw it to the case. If there's too much vibration use rubber spacers anywhere the pump or mounting hardware is touching each other or the case itself. You could also mount the pump on top of a piece of Styrofoam.
