My garlic press from bed bath and beyond works well. I use whole leaves. For me the objective is to use this as a guide. Going for real precise numbers is not necessary for me. I look at the values my best plants give me, then look for deviations.JK
I do this around lights on with my coffee. There is more moisture in the leaves at this time. I am using the same time so the numbers stay relevant.
I haven't read that, but I'm thinking maybe one of the cats at Sensational Solutions may know (they're the ones who do micronized stuff that I'm somewhat a little familiar with).
I sample leaves from the middle of the plant. Minus the petriol and midrip.@oxanaca Curious as to whether you sampled old leaves or new leaves?
Adding more k from mkp could make the problem with your plants worse. The mites will love it!!
yes mkp aka (mono potassium phosphate) can reduce ph but it also minimizes escape of ammonia.
Which attracts insects. Also good to check you do not have excessive potassium chloride.
That will result in less uptake of nitrogen phosphorus and sulfur. The anions you are possibly in need of.
Hope that helps.
P.S. few references.
