How can a low Brix level alert translate into a problem you ask?
-
If you are having a Low Brix Alert it means this:

Use a refractometer
-
A refractometer will tell you the Brix level of the plant in question.
-
I would start a log. Record the date and time of the reading. time will vary the brix reading so read in mid day.
-
Time of year will also determine Brix levels
-
Varieties will also determine Brix levels
-
Soil PH will determine Brx levels
Here is the relationship between Brix level - Sugar - Carbohdrates - Minerals
Brix vs Sugar vs Carbohydrates vs Minerals

The Brix level will always tell you what the Sugar level is. This will also be the same for what the carbohydrate level is and will also show you the mineral levels. The Fuzzy rule will determine how much of a varied mineral levels you have. The sharper the line between the dark and light areas on the refractometer, the less varied the minerals, the fuzzier the line the more different types of minerals available!
