About Soil Moisture Meters
Soil moisture plays an enormous role in the health of your plants and crops. Soil moisture meters help to take the guesswork out of watering, helping you to:
- Reduce costly water wastage
- Improve plant growth and development
- Increase crop yields; and
- Prevent over or underwatering that could kill your plants.
How To Use A Soil Moisture Meter
What you intend to measure, the types of plants you are growing, and the plant’s root system type will influence the size of the probe you need. For example, if you have plants in a shallow planter or small pot, you should have a probe that can measure to a depth of at least two-thirds of the container’s height. However, for lawns, large pots, deep garden beds, and vegetable gardens, you need a sensor that can reach as deep into the soil as possible.
