Key Features & Functions:
1. pH Level Testing (3.5 - 9.0 Range)
- Measures soil acidity and alkalinity, helping determine if the soil is suitable for specific plants.
- Essential for gardeners who need to adjust soil pH for better nutrient absorption.
- A neutral pH (around 7.0) is ideal for most plants, while acidic (below 7) or alkaline (above 7) soils may require amendments.
2. Soil Moisture Measurement (1-10 Scale)
- Detects the moisture content in the soil to prevent overwatering or underwatering.
- Scale ranges from 1 (dry) to 10 (wet), helping maintain the ideal watering schedule for different plants.
- Ideal for indoor and outdoor plants, helping prevent root rot or dehydration.
3. Temperature Measurement (-9°C to 50°C / 16°F to 122°F)
- Monitors soil temperature, crucial for seed germination and plant growth.
- Helps farmers and gardeners adjust planting schedules based on temperature readings.
- Ensures crops are planted at the optimal temperature for germination and growth.
4. Light Intensity Detection (0-2000 Lux)
- Measures the amount of sunlight received by the plant.
- Helps determine whether a plant is getting sufficient or excessive light for proper photosynthesis.
- Allows gardeners to reposition plants for optimal light exposure.
How to Use:
- Insert the probe into the soil at a depth of 4-6 inches.
- Select the desired mode (pH, moisture, temperature, or light) using the switch.
- Wait for a few seconds to get an accurate reading.
- Record the measurement and adjust watering, lighting, or soil pH accordingly.
- Remove and clean the probe after each use for accurate results.
⚠️ Important Notices:
- Not Suitable for Liquids: This device is designed only for soil testing. Do not use it to test water, fertilizer solutions, or any other liquids, as it may damage the sensor.
- Requires a 9V Battery: If the screen turns green without displaying numbers, it means the battery is depleted and needs replacement.
- When Soil Is Too Dry: Extremely dry soil may give inaccurate readings. Lightly water the soil and wait 30 minutes before testing again for better accuracy.
