Ph as far as testing Runoff.... Yeah kinda ridiculous, shouldn't be brought up at all as advice for an organic soil.
Soil test, different story.
Low strength what?
EC is for salts. In organics, where would the EC fit in to the equation?
It's not like it's about being a dick. It's just language that doesn't apply, like talking about hydro equipment, it just doesn't apply.... and then it's even more confusing to the new organic growers really trying to figure it all out.
well if you were bored you could take purified water add soil soak,filter and measure your readings . giving you the current available soluables but nothing on the slow release. if you ever do this go back to hydro where ya belong
