Hi All,
I'm struggling to accurately determine the PH of my water and I was wondering if anyone can explain why I get such different PH readings when testing with strips vs the API PH test kit I have.
According to the JBL test strips I have the PH is around 6.5 or not even registering (see attached example) and another test strip I have (Voonline) shows the same. However, when I test with a proper PH drop test like the API PH test, PH measures much higher at around 7.0.
Is this big a different to be expected, or is there something else going on?
Thanks
Chris
