Solutions Scientists Use HY-GEN Calibrations solutions are made according to international standards. The pH ELECTRODE STORAGE and PROBE CLEANER solutions are the same quality as those used in laboratories for the safe cleaning and storage of electronic meters. All calibration and care solutions are made using high quality analytical grade constituents. DESCRIPTION The ideal pH range for a nutrient solution is typically between 5.8 and 6.5. A pH value above or below this range can increase the likelihood that some nutrients become unavailable to the plant. A pH value of 6.3 typically works well for most plants. Some electronic meters require a ‘two point’ calibration. pH BUFFER 4 is important as the lower calibration point in the two point calibration process. This will ensure that meters accurately reflect the true reading at the lower end of the range.
