ECO MILWAUKEE EC METER

The Milwaukee EC Eco Meter allows you to:

• Measure the electro-conductivity of irrigation water. EC, or electro-conductivity, measures dissolved salts. Controlling dissolved salts helps you determine the water's hardness and quality. If the water is very hard and of poor quality, farming becomes impossible, and you'll need to resort to using water from a reverse osmosis filter.
• Reconstitute osmosis water. Filtered water needs to be reconstituted with an addition of calcium and magnesium. The meter allows you to add the exact amount you need.
• Control fertilization. Fertilizing with the EC of your irrigation water in mind allows you to maximize your crop yield without neglecting the quality of the buds.

Very easy to use:

• Uncover the meter
• Turn on the meter with the on/off button, immerse it up to the limit, the part that is hidden with the lid, and wait for the reading to stabilize.
• After using the meter, run the electrode under distilled water or use a product designed for electrode maintenance to clean it, and store it with its lid on.

La Huerta's Opinion

The meter comes factory-calibrated. It is recommended that it be calibrated periodically. At La Huerta Grow Shop, you will find the calibration solution.
