Ph too high [RESOLVED]

Just tested my ph levels. It was 19 :exploding_head: what do I do?

If I’m not mistaken but when you do a drain n fill it should dispense it to the right ph some one correct me if I’m wrong? Assuming that’s why we have ph up n ph down bottles with our grobo

Your pH meter might be off … isn’t the pH scale 0-14? Send in a ticket asking the Grobo team what their reading of your pH level is.

I noticed on the less expensive meters as the battery dies the reading goes off ever-so-slightly in one direction until it goes way off the charts. This could be what happened if you left it on for 29 minutes then came back to check on it.

Keeping some spare batteries is helpful to double-check it’s not just that.

It’s good to also make sure it’s calibrated if the battery is deemed fine.

As much as I would like to say the Ph meter was off, it was really me off :woozy_face:. I have no idea how I got 19 (I was medicated ) but that’s what it read. So I filled and drained for no reason :woman_facepalming:t4: My husband came right in took the levels with no problem :disappointed:(my husband and I share this account). No more edibles and working. But I truly thank you guys for the feedback

What about temp and humidity during the drying recipe? And are the lights supposed to be off during dry mode? Thank you as always.
