i would like to add i was having problems with nut lock out and i went into my room yesterday and my meter was jumping around in the mid 4 range when i had prepared the solution at 6.5,after i noticed this i retested and the meter was all over the place again so i poured some into a different container and tested and it was testing different then the original solution it came from, buffed the meter in 7 and 4 the meter acted normal and was set right ,maybe the water im using is vary hard because it comes from an old well that has not been used for years that is lined with stone,maybe this is causing the plants to lock out nuts and cause the meter to act funny,?i did test a different water source and the meter did the same thing to note as well the meter seemed to be not is jumpy in the small cups as compaired to my buckets i usually keep it in .i dont no ,thought i would just throw this info out there to see if any one else had this experience

Don't know this brand.
I had a Milwaukee that did that.
Threw it away.
Now I use drops, cheaper too.
However would like to find a cheap pH pen. Like that digital read out and no guessing.

I feel you.
I seem to have gotten over freaking out with my plants, but they still can put me in a bad mood.
