Grow your best plants by understanding root zone moisture, conductivity (EC) and temperature
With the Bluelab Pulse Meter, growers can make better decisions based on data collected from the root zone.
Moisture: Measure moisture to control your irrigation cycles and water consumption while minimizing the risk of root infections.
Conductivity (EC): All plants need the right amount of food (nutrients) to thrive. Measure conductivity (EC) so your plants have access to the right amount of nutrients at every growth stage.
Temperature: The temperature of your root zone changes during the growing season, influencing conductivity (EC) measurements. Spot temperature fluctuations and improve root function.How to take your first measurement in the root zone with the Bluelab Pulse Meter

What to do with your first measurement
Use the measurement from your best plant as the benchmark. Measure your plants as often as you need so you can make decisions like:
- Should I feed or flush?
- Am I watering enough?
How to understand measurements with the Pulse.
Understanding Nutrient Measurements with the Pulse Meter
Your Pulse™ Meter uses radio frequencies to determine the pore conductivity in substrates. Electrical conductivity is a common measure of the nutrient ions present in a solution or substrate and is widely used as an indicator of available nutrients.
Electrical conductivity (measured in EC) is a measure of total ions present and cannot tell if nutrient levels are out of balance (e.g. too much nitrogen but not enough potassium).
The electrical conductivity in any substrate will generally be lower than the EC of the nutrient solution being added due to how substrates can buffer ions. Accurate EC measurements require at least 20% volumetric moisture content in the substrate
Unlimited Blocks, Tabs or Accordions with any HTML content can be assigned to any individual product or to certain groups of products, like entire categories, brands, products with specific options, attributes, price range, etc. You can indicate any criteria via the advanced product assignment mechanism and only those products matching your criteria will display the modules.
Also, any module can be selectively activated per device (desktop/tablet/phone), customer login status and other criteria. Imagine the possibilities.
