Description
Too much water in the soil is not only bad for plants, but it also wastes water and adds an extra burden on our planet. Plants grow best at their preferred temperature ranges. With access to soil moisture and temperature data, we can take action to make sure the right amount of water is irrigated at the appropriate time and that plants are in optimal environments for their growth.
This Soil Moisture & Temperature Sensor comes with hook-up wires. It is designed with industry standards and incorporates two sensors (soil moisture sensor and soil temperature sensor) into one, featuring high precision and high sensitivity. By measuring the dielectric constant of the soil, it can stably measure the soil VWC (volumetric water content) regardless of various soil types. The measurement conforms to current international standards for soil moisture measurement.
It is IP68-rated, very robust and durable, and suitable for long-term monitoring of soil moisture and temperature at scientific experiments, water-saving irrigation, greenhouses, outdoor farming, gardening, precision agriculture, and other professional environmental monitoring scenarios.
