The Story
Essential Soil Kit - pH & EC check
Included Test:
- (x1) Run Off Testing
- (x1) Soil Analysis
- (x1) Water Analysis
Run‑Off Testing
Run‑Off analysis measures imbalances in EC and pH in your growth medium leachate versus feed. By detecting whether nutrients accumulate or if plants are absorbing what you provide, it helps growers fine‑tune feeding and prevent salt buildup. Ideal for media such as coco, rockwool, or soil.
Recommended use: weekly spot checks during heavy feeding stages or after recipe changes or flushes.
Soil Analysis
A complete soil or soilless medium test assesses a plant’s ability to absorb nutrients and helps craft ideal irrigation and amendment plans. It evaluates pH buffer capacity, fertility, cation exchange capacity (CEC), and harmful salt levels, and supports testing of coco fiber, peat moss, and composted forest materials.
Recommended use: when starting a new batch of soil, or between runs when re‑amending living media.
Water Analysis
A water analysis is important for wells because well water is usually high in salts, and levels often change. Even water from municipal sources can change in composition over time so regular testing is important to determine purity and safety.
Recommended use: Quarterly or whenever municipality changes source or before installing expensive filtration
What To Expect: We will ship the appropriate sample holder and accompanying instructions, along with a prepaid return label, if requested, for sending it back to our facility. Test results will be available within 2 to 3 business days after which one of our Cultivation Advisors will contact you to discuss the next steps.
