Just know that your ph- will evaporate over 12 hours, so set your ph- a few points below your ideal setting and check it in 12 and 24 hour intervals, but be aware your growth will explode beyond what you have previously experienced.

Can ph be stabilized?
just buy pure phosphoric acid, as that’s what’s in PH down and is much cheaper. I went from using 250-350ml on ph down to using 20-30ml of phosphoric acid..
Keep ya probe clean it will stay but check
I switched to the Paper strips for PH testing. I had to always check the PH on the meter and set the standard to much. The strips just tear and dip. It couldn’t be easier. Also look around for the color on the strips if you have a hard time seeing it. the style i have is yellow orange red purple blue and you really know which number you are at with in .2 which is pretty damn good. I also pay a buck or 2 per roll and can do a lot of tests before buying more.
