I don't know about tossing the PH kit.
For newbies, ph readings are an easy way to find out whether more testing is necessary.
After a while we get to learn that problems are developing just by observing the tank but in the beginning a ph test is a very usefull tool IMO.
Among other things the ph can lower as a result of overfeeding, something dying in the tank or an overdue water change.
