The problem for plant growers is knowing if the conditions are just right for every plant, and of course, they all have somewhat different needs, often significantly different. Unfortunately, their only way of telling you something is wrong is by wilting or dying, and you still don’t learn the problem.
The EL-SM-METER3IN1 is a 3-functions-in-1
Soil Monitor that electronically makes scientific measurements so you can control those growing conditions.
The instrument integrates special soil probes with the meter into a single unit. It displays the moisture in the soil at the root level, the soil’s pH (acidity/alkalinity) and the strength of the sunlight. The measurement values are displayed on an easy-to-read meter. It is self-powered, requires no batteries or external power and is ready for use.
Note that, unlike feeling the soil surface with your hand, this Monitor has thin probes that can sense the moisture level where it matters, down in the plant’s root system up to 200mm below the surface, where it may be very moist even if the air and sun have dried the top surface of the soil or precisely the opposite!
The operation consists of simply selecting the measurement using the 3-position switch and placing the Monitor’s probes in the soil.
- - Moisture is displayed on a scale of 0 (dry) to 10 (wet).
- - pH is shown in the pH scale, from 3.5 (acid) to 8 (alkaline).
- - Light is displayed on a scale of 0-2000.
- - Size (approximate): 50 x 40 x 300mm including probes.
- - Weight (approximate): 60 grams.
