Canna coco pro+, canna AnB for coco and pk 13/14 should ya to start, maybe some gro-tec silicon but its optional as are boosts like green planets massive, it`s up to you whether you get an EC pen, but probably better you do, deffo need a ph pen, if you buy an ec pen make sure you get an ec pen and not those wanky cheapo ppm metres that claim EC pen on fleabay, oh ph up n down, well no need for up if using silicon, just ph-.

Just clicked your link thats bang on is that stuff. :)

 

I own this EC pen its only one ive ever owned and it works a treat. The cheap yellow ph pens work great as well so long as you dont go dropping it in your mix or slinging it around and break the glass globe, but that applies to all ph pens

Some may say its better to buy quality but well ive only ever had one cheapo ec pen and 2 cheapo ph pens, my own fault cus i dropped them both and smashed the glass ball i bought a bit more expensive type, but i cant see a difference and if i drop it i swear that ball will break, so yes basically look after the cheapo ones rinsning after each use and i always fill lid/cap with cold water afterwards to sit the actual probes in and they should last quite some time. EC pens are sturdy as feck and last for ever, well mine has upto now. Maybe look at an EC and PH callibration fluid, dont go crazy, one say EC 2.8`ish will do ya and PH buffer 4 or 7 just one or both work, tbh i think only one of those ph buffers is called for, but tis up  to you,
