A water resistant Horticare plant nutrient cF tester designed to detect nutrient concentration in cF (conductivity factor). Using the HortiCare Conductivity Factor Tester can help to ensure easy control of nutrients, promote a consistent harvest and help maintain healthy and lush plants.
The function of a nutrient solution or fertilizer mixture is to supply the plant roots with water, oxygen and essential mineral elements in soluble form. The success of hydroponics system depends heavily on the correct control of nutrient solution.
Each plant has its preferred solution concentration to facilitate the absorption process to the roots. Solution concentration is measured in EC, cF or TDS value. High values, meaning high nutrient concentration, may result in wilting and suppressed growth of plant. This must be monitored as frequently as possible because evaporation takes place in any environment that is warm and dry, so that remedial action can be taken.
