In Response To: Re: Opinions on Nitrate Testing Methods (Fishface_Jr)

I already have a Wardley kit that is new. To make a long story short, I measured my tapwater nitrate reading and it read 20 ppm. That is a big difference from what our town water company has as its reading. We have town wells. So I brought in my sample of tapwater, and nitrite/nitrate testing stips were used. There, my tapwater read a 2 ppm. So perhaps I just answered my own question and I should go with the strips. B
