A pH meter is only as good as its last calibration. The IONICS pH 4.01 buffer solution provides the low-end reference required for any reliable two-point calibration (paired with a pH 7.01 buffer). A 30-second routine that protects nutrient uptake and yield in your indoor garden.

| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| pH (at 25°C) | 4.01 ± 0.02 |
| Volume | 300 ml |
| Calibrations available | 10 to 15 |
| Packaging | Sealed bottle with dosing cap |
Stabilised buffer at 4.01 ± 0.02 pH at 25°C. Compatible with the calibration standards of all professional and consumer pH testers.
300 ml bottle with dosing cap: pour just what you need, reseal and store. Easily covers a full season of indoor growing.
Water and nutrient solutions drift in pH fast. A weekly to bi-weekly calibration safeguards nutrient assimilation and final yield.
For serious indoor growing, calibrate every 1 to 2 weeks, and always after replacing the probe or after long storage. A drift of just 0.3 pH can block iron or calcium uptake.
Can I reuse the buffer after calibration?No. Once your probe has touched it, the solution is contaminated and loses its reference value. Pour only the small amount needed into a clean cup, then discard. That is exactly why 300 ml lasts 10–15 calibrations.
Combined with a pH 7.01 IONICS or other-brand buffer, this solution unlocks two-point calibration — the only reliable method to keep readings accurate in hydroponic culture.
