General Hydroponics pH Test Indicator, 1-Ounce

I found this to be an excellent product. Word of advise go slow drop by drop and recheck. If not you will go in a circle. Add slowly. Mix first in a cup of water. Then add it in. I tested this against my ph pen and dam spot on. Or darn near it. It is reliable and effective. Test water ph before you start and air rate the water with a fish tank air pump and stone . Let water sit out 24 hours to remove chlorine. Test your soil ph . And test run off of soil. This will help to put the soil water in the ph zone you want. Price is not bad I had mine for months and it last a long time. Ty reading.

My shipment arrived slighly 'wet' inside the plastic bag and the paper labelling within; however, each indivdiual jar was properly sealed -- so... dunno where the wetness came from..The product itself works well; test is easy to conduct and easy to read with sufficient color variation to divine even 7 vs. 7.5 vs. 8 PH, etc.PH down is quite strong, a little goes a long way (about 1 capful pulled my 3 gal bucket down from 8.0 to 7.0 when measured again after 3 days).If I had a suggestion would be to also sell this kit in lower cost formats that do not include one of the PH up's or PH down (i.e. I dont really see myself using the PH UP, so therefore I would have preferred it not be included in the price).

There are no leaks and the product works exactly as described!

This pH control kit is essential for anyone managing a hydroponic system! It makes it incredibly easy to maintain the right pH balance for optimal plant growth. The included solutions for raising or lowering pH are straightforward to use, and the test kit provides quick and accurate readings. The instructions are clear, even for beginners. My plants have been thriving since using this kit, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to keep their nutrient solution balanced!

This product does exactly what it says it does! efficiently too!this product is 3 bottles pH-up, pH-down and a pH test solution. (also comes with a vial to conduct the pH testing in AND a pipette which I thought was great, I ended up getting on before I opened the package assuming they did not provide one, but General Hydroponics really gives you everything you need to open the package and do testing RIGHT AWAY!)I tested this on my hydroponic system with a calibrated pH meter hehe.....I wanted to know how accurate the test solution is. The test solution runs on a color scale, acidic being pink basic being dark green. The scale is located ON THE BOTTLE! so you never will lose it. As far as my basic testing concluded, the test solution is accurate; the color changes are visibly recognizable and comparable to the provided scale. 6.0 is yellow, 7.0 is green, and both of these matched my pH meter (in approximation, don't expect to perfectly get a 6.3 or something, this test kit is intended for keeping pH in a safe range, you could play with it and get exactly what pH you want with the assistance of a pH meter but I am judging this based on if a user DID NOT have access to a pH meter going on the test solution only.)The acid solution is very effective, which is nice, you don't want to use a lot of product to achieve results and end up being in need of more solution spending more $$$. I suggest using this 1-3 drop at a time, waiting 20 mins or so based on water flow and size of your container, and doing another test. Don't over do it, always undershoot what you are aiming for; you will save product and also prevent too acid/basic solution......just be patient, eventually you will understand the power of the acid/base solutions and wont even have to second guess if you put too much in or not.All in all, this is a must for a hobby hydroponic gardener or even a professional. Having a pH meter is nice, but some times the calibration may be off and having another testing method as provided in this kit is a good safety. I enjoy testing my solutions BOTH with the meter and the test solution because I know with out a doubt if my solution is within the correct pH range.This will last probably a year or even more depending on how big your system is. Just use sparingly and maybe play with the testing solution with known known acid/base solutions so you can take not of what the ACTUAL color of the liquid will look like in correspondence with the pH. Maybe put some vinegar in the vial, drop some test solution and take note. you will see a bright pink color. add some of the base solution and you will see the color change in the vial....do this before you mess with your actual nutrient solution just to get a feel for the colors!5 stars for: price, reliability, longevity of the product use and ease of use.General Hydro is kind of the "big boss" hydro company and they really know what they are doing. Every product thus far I have purchased is good.

Definitely works, I use it to water my plant to get the PH just right. I do recommend but Alway read labels.

good product
