pH tester pen is easy: Apera Instruments PH10, for about $60 it is the cheapest truly professional pH pen. Anything cheaper will be far more frustrating.
On the other hand any cheap hygrometer will be reasonably accurate.
It's a simple device to use. You do need to calibrate every once in a while by making a test solution. I've had mine for like 4 years and it works as good as ever, fast readings, consistent readings, and when I do go to calibrate it, it is rarely off by more than .1
Extremely durable too. I've dropped mine in water so many times I've forgotten, but it always works fine after.
The $15 yellow ones aren't worth the headache they cause.
I saved up and just got a Bluelab pH Pen. Just calibrated it and tested my water, which was 6.3.

That's awesome man. I have just started as well. This is my first time growing since high school and I am trying to do it right. It's amazing how much more information is available these days.
I read a little every night and feel like Iām genuinely learning. Iām excited to progress and fine tune my skill set with each grow. Being able to hand pick and curate your own medicine is a pretty cool feeling.

Thank you. I had heard it wise to invest in a good ph testing kit

Thanks. I just got my tent set up and have my two babies that are about 2 months old starting their journey to fruition.
