Well said, lifes too short for sillyness onward and upward!

fr3d12 about the fluid i calibrate mine every month to two months and it only ever is off about 0.1 or 0.2, if you buy the fluid dont put the pen into it or you will change the ph of the fluid! pour a little out into something clean then put the pen in and calibrate, when i bought my fluid i bought both 4 and 7 and its sets it even better if you set it at 4 then set it at 7, but i guess one of the fluids will be fine id go for 7 rather than 4 as you will be keeping your ph closer to 7 than 4

Its an auto isent it? ive never topped an auto only photo plants so i cant really say but its in flower so i wouldent top it! you need to do what i am doing and lst the main cola id water then after an hour bend the main cola slightly and tie it down then after another few hours bend it even more, dont try bending it right over first tie down or it will break, id say thats your best bet as auto dont take well to topping and id say even worse when its well into flower

looking more id start by tieing it at the middle of the cola at the same height as the rest of the branches and probly use 3 strings one at bottom of the cola one in middle and one closer to the top, your yield will be better that way also and you will be able to have the light closer without burning the main cola

I wouldn't recommend it, it won't be 7.0 thats for sure after a few days. I use 30ml of ph fluid to calibrate the meter each week, it will cost less than a tenner for ph fluid for a full grow so don't be worried about cost.
Thanks.
I'd be more worried about not having it when I need it.

guys i have never calibrated my pen. i have no fluid to do it. it's about a year 8 months old now. would it be way off, and is there a good way to test it? or is there nothing but the calibration fluid that has a set ph?

Distilled water has a PH of 7.0, or if you can find some bottled water that has a PH of close to 7.0 you could wing it with that.

Alright lads, switched to 12/12 today. Some signs of N def in one of them but nothing too serious. I'll get pics tomorrow evening.

iam, no wonder the buds are falling over, from the pics they look phenomenal
