Watch out fellas we are about to talk about PH meters, move along now, nothing to see here. We already know your gang doesn't believe in PH meters..
What i don't get is what can you ascertain from the plant sap ph you can't from a look at the leaves or the general vigour of said plant?
I know my plants are healthy when they grow well and look good.
Do you folks test the sap from every single plant? Time well spent or time when you could be doing something else??
For example I would rather spend my time making compost, collecting comfrey or seaweed from the beach and watching my garden grow (and smoking tasty bongs). Not to mention the unavoidable time spent trimming, mixing up soil and making compost tea...
Just seems like a bit of a gimmick.
Happy to be proven wrong...
I know that people have their own ideas about stuff like whether or not ghosts exist, and it's one of those things I don't get my panties bunched over, just like with religion, everyone has and needs their own flavor.ok... time to address this thread.
SeaMaiden, i actually thought your post was blatant sarcasm, especially considering that you wrote 'seriously' at the end of your post. i thought i was adding to that sarcasm...sorry about that, i was confused and stoned. if you would like to believe in ghosts then whatever...but really, don't everybody get all pissy that i put up the ghostbusters trailer, that was hilarious. and science does not support the existence of ghosts, and there are no instruments available to detect ghosts so i was making the leap of faith by suggesting that they simply do not exist. my bad. sorry.
Hmmm so is it the future or just a passing fad?
Let's say my garden is booming, i ph my sap and its not 6.4. You are saying this is a problem i should rectify?
Equally lets say my garden is struggling. I can tell it needs some more nutrition. I test the ph of the sap and its not 6.4. Usually i would add some compost top dress, comfrey soak, compost tea or sprouted barley soak. How would the reading affect my/your decision on what to feed?
Just trying to understand.
