Phosphorus reading not totally repeatable - moved about .02 - .03 EC calibrated on 1413, but check on 84 standard read as 69 - possibly correct reading was 82 pH Meter misread 7.00 calibration sample as 5.99. Water sample also read 5.99 Recalibrated meter on 7.00 sample - read 7.02, then dropped to 6.99. Water sample read 7.05. Rechecked on calibration sample - meter now read 7.35. As first readings of calibration standard and water sample were identical I have assumed water PH was 7.00.
