MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENTS

Essential measuring instruments for the control of cannabis crops

The measurement and control of environmental parameters in cannabis crops is essential to guarantee high quality production. Temperature and humidity controllers are essential to maintain an optimal climate in the crop , while pH and EC controllers allow the acidity and electrical conductivity levels of irrigation water and substrate to be measured .

Additionally, calibration fluids, maintenance, storage and cleaning are essential to ensure the accuracy and durability of pH and EC meters, while other parameters such as sound and light are also important to ensure a suitable growing environment. All of these measuring instruments are essential to ensure high-quality, high-yield cannabis cultivation.

Importance of PH control in marijuana crops

In the world of marijuana crops, measuring the pH of irrigation water and substrate is essential to guarantee a high-quality crop. If the pH is unbalanced, plants may have trouble absorbing necessary nutrients. It is important to remember that the ideal pH changes depending on the growth phase of the plant.

During the growth phase , it is recommended to maintain a pH of 5.5-6 for correct nitrogen absorption . During the flowering phase, the pH can increase to 6.2-6.8 for correct assimilation of phosphorus and potassium . Having accurate pH meters is crucial to ensuring a top-notch marijuana crop.

Control the Concentration of Salts in your Marijuana Crop with EC Meters

Electrical conductivity, or EC, is a fundamental parameter to guarantee a high-quality marijuana crop. A high EC in irrigation water can negatively affect nutrient uptake by plants and cause problems in crop development. That is why it is essential to have accurate EC meters to be able to control this parameter in all phases of the crop. In our online store we offer a wide variety of high-quality EC meters so you can ensure that your irrigation water is always in the best condition.

Using Temperature Meters to Optimize Marijuana Cultivation

Temperature meters are devices used in marijuana crops to measure the temperature of the air and soil inside the plantation. These meters help growers maintain a suitable environment for the growth of marijuana, since the plant requires specific temperatures for its optimal development.
These can be manual or digital and usually include a probe or thermometer that is inserted into the ground or placed in the air to measure temperature. Some meters also include temperature alerts to indicate when the temperature is outside the desired range.

Maintaining an Appropriate Level of Humidity in Marijuana Crops with Moisture Meters

Moisture meters are essential tools in marijuana crops since humidity is a critical factor for the growth and development of the plant. These meters measure the humidity of the soil and air inside the plantation . Growers use this information to ensure that the humidity level is adequate for marijuana growth.

There are different types of moisture meters, such as soil moisture meters that use a probe to measure soil moisture and air moisture meters that use a sensor to measure air humidity.
Some meters also include humidity alerts to indicate when the humidity level is outside the desired range.

Maintaining the precision of pH and EC meters in marijuana crops with calibrating liquids

Calibrator liquids are solutions used to calibrate pH and EC (electrical conductivity) meters in marijuana crops. These liquids have a known pH and electrical conductivity and are used to ensure that the meters are measuring correctly.

There are also other liquid solutions for meters, such as cleaning and storage solutions . Cleaning meters with these solutions prevents the buildup of dirt and minerals on the sensors, which can negatively affect measurement accuracy. Additionally, storing meters in these solutions helps prevent corrosion and prolongs their useful life.
It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions when using these solutions and not use solutions that are not specific for calibrating pH or EC meters.

Optimizing the performance of marijuana crops through the measurement of noise, light and spectrum

The measurement of other parameters in marijuana crops is essential to obtain optimal performance and maintain the discretion of the crop. Some of these parameters are sound and lighting. Both must be controlled for various reasons since noise can attract unwanted onlookers and measuring the lighting helps us to know the lumens of the crop and see if they are adequate or not.

A sound level meter is a device used to measure noise levels inside the plantation. Noise control is important as we have already said, to avoid alerting anyone about the crop and to ensure a quiet environment for the development of marijuana.

A lux meter is a device used to measure light levels inside the plantation. This helps growers get the most out of their crop and know when bulbs need to be changed.
