WH0291 Soil Moisture Monitor

Incredibly handy, I love being able to tell where my in ground garden is at without having to go outside, especially getting into July where my tomatoes and cucumbers are drawing up absurd amounts of water in the heat, and I don’t want to have to go out into the heat if I don’t have to. This module is very reliable, and as long as you actually installed the rubber caps on the probe you will have zero issues with moisture getting into it. If you are on the fence, just get it. You can’t imagine how useful this little thing is.

This is a really nice Soil Moisture Sensor and works perfectly for me. I have two of them and use them with my Ecowitt WS90 Weather Station. Very well made and seem to be accurate. I have the setup with my Ecowitt weather station to notify me (by text & email) when the moisture gets too low, so I remember to water the plants. They also work great outside with my tomato plants and herbs.

Fast read out, easy to use. Extremely precise. Helps determine watering needs for indoor & outdoor plants, shrubs, trees, and lawns. Helps maximize water conservation. “gun” form factor makes it easier to place than other types of monitors. Probe is delicate so I recommend you make a channel first with a screwdriver-like weeder or similar tool before sticking in the probe. Otherwise, you could easily break the probe. Because the reader is separate from the probe, you don’t have to bend down or squat, read a tiny display, or contort your head sideways like most other soil meters. No need for an app, bluetooth, or wifi either, as the system is stand alone & self-contained.

This is a good moisture meter. We have found it to be accurate. I deducted one star because if you don't use it for a day, you have to reinstall the batteries. First the display then the probe. This is not covered in the instructions which are totally confusing. My wife and I are intelligent people, but the manual is totally confusing. So I will recommend the product, just be aware of the battery situation.

Tried a non-electric moisture meeting. Its was difficult to read and stop working. This moisture meter is a 1000 times better. Water read 100% which tells me it's very accurate. Only thing missing is an on off switch. No biggie- I just remove the batteries after use.

This is my go to for watering plants. I checked it everyday with a manual stick in the dirt everyday for the first couple of days to see the difference in readings and I am very satisfied at the reading I get on this stay in the ground- read it indoors. Wish I bought one earlier. This is so easy to tell when it needs water, without going outside .

I love this soil moisture meter. I don't really have a way to test how accurate it is, but I can tell you it reads 0% moisture in dry air and 100% moisture when dipped in water, so it's at least got the two boundaries right. It seems to match my handheld moisture meter I use for plants outdoors. You know, the kind with two prongs that you stab into the soil and the little needle on the dial tells you moisture content. Well, I have to say I trust this moisture meter a bit more as it seems to read more consistently. The probe itself is a little bigger than I anticipated, but that's not a big deal. I have the display sitting about 14 feet from the probe and it has no problem getting a signal. Overall I'm really happy with this purchase.

This thing absolutely does not work, reads an arbitrary number that has no relationship with reality. Spend a little more money and get the Blumat meter.

Dyr men den fungerar perfekt!

Très bonne qualité

These seem to be recommended by a lot of Home Assistant users. They came in brown boxes (a good thing), well packaged. Pretty easy to setup..pop in a AA battery, open the ecowitt app, add them. You can set up alarms,calibrate them, all within the app. One thing, they are bright green, so easy to see, dark green would be better. Good range out garden isn't huge but the signal is good. One other thing to note, you do need the ecowitt hub, a small USB box that's permanently on. All in all I like them.

Such an amazing idea, but they miscalculated and misunderstood the function: the depth (height of the spike) is too low. It is not useful unless you want to measure a flower's moisture. I am not sure why you would need to test your flowers - they are fine, just put a finger in the soil. The intention / primary consideration for purchasing a moisture meter is to understand how moist is the ROOT. This is WHY ALL, and I mean *ALL* moisture meters are TALL. Guys, have you gone out there and ever purchased one? They are very lengthy for a REASON! Because they must measure moisture at the ROOT. This only goes as far as your middle finger - which , incidentally, was my thought. This device completely fails at what it is supposed to do and is less than half the size of a typical $10 moisture meter.
