Tap Score - Essential Hydroponics Water Testing Kit
Recommended for basic water quality testing to assess overall suitability for use in hydroponic agriculture and aquaculture.

This testing package also includes a self-test strip for on-site testing of free and total chlorine.
This Tap Score test package provides all required materials to properly collect and submit a water sample for certified laboratory testing. The results will include detailed analysis of common water health concerns for hydroponic gardens.
