    I have "nutra-wand" tester, its good for fast test, but it does show right too. Each time it show different results. But difference is small so it can't addict my plants. Organic tea is different story, you can't test with ordinary tester, I think need some professional tools. My own experience tells my, that you can't over fertilize you plants, so it is unnecessary to test And I am sure there are salt, there is no material without salt, just yours tester don't know this thing like organic fertilizer, It's suppose to test concentration of clear nutritions...

    I just got a tester combo from the same people, it arrived next day and seems to be in order. I went for the set with the nutriwand and a grey ph meter with 0.01 resoloution which useful, the nutriwand starts at 4 and goes up in increments of 2 so not as clear but the leds do flash differently if the meter is inbetween the markings on the scale.

    All need to be calibrated with buffer fluid from time to time. I bought this one.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UK-QUALITY...ht_1996wt_1344 It's fairly expensive but I love this pen.
