Default Worthless test kits......

Jungle's Quick Dip sticks! Worthless... I called the water co. and
spoke to them about the high nitrates coming from my tap. Uh oh,...
these quick-dip sticks are very, very off.

My reading was 20ppm nitrates and his was .34ppm = what a difference!
My PH reading was 7.8 and his was 7.2.
My alkalinity was 300+ and his was 220mpl.

Just an example.... I may as well toss these $12 worthless sticks in
the trash can.

He suggested I use the other type of kit and not the Quick Dip type.
In his opinion they're the least accurate. I could have bought a nice
goldfish for that $12.

So I guess you could say, these dip sticks are not worth the paper they
were printed on, eh? ;~)
