Soil Moisture Meter, 2 Pack Long Probe Soil Moisture Monitor for House Plants, Soil Hygrometer Moisture Sensor for Indoor & Outdoor, Garden, Farm, Lawn Plant Care, No Battery Needed(Green)

I am disappointed that I didn’t find this sooner. Could have saved a lot of plants I was way off on my water regimen. Requires no batteries, the quality is great I got this because of the size, I have a few dip potted plant it works on all of my plants and I have over 30 in my house. It has been very durable easy to use , insert and read the display. Has several moisture levels and not just dry and wet it’s a good read. Very well priced.

LOVE IT. Works really well. It has kept my plants healthier now. I was never able to keep cactuses and succulents alive before because my watering was bad but this makes it accurate. Very very helpful tool

Do your plants hate you? Are they dying? When did you last water them? Do you know if your plant is getting enough water? Wonder no more with this doohickey.Ok in all seriousness, as anyone who has kept house plants will know it's a crap shoot knowing if your plant needs watering or not. Some of us let them go until they look pekid, or just have a date each month that the plants get watered. I have utilized both of these systems and some plants thrive under these conditions, but others do not. RIP English Ivy, you gave it your temperamental best and I will always remember how you hated just about everything.I bought this because I have a Monstera (well, actually 7, but who's counting) and she has big beautiful leaves on the main plant and the smaller plant has beautiful little leaves exact miniature replicas of their mother. In spite of having leaves the size of my palm, and I have big hands, and you know what that means, I always have to open the pickle jars, she's not fenestrating. So I did some research and it lead to buying one of these things. Wunderbar, now I have a gadgety little gizmo and two repotted monsteras that are growing like gang busters and still have no fenestrations. I'm not mad, I'm not even disappointed, I'm resigned to the fact that I'm doing something wrong and it's all my fault. I give you dirt and a pot and the sweat from my back and what do I get in return, a weeping monstera that is possibly going to out grown her pot or is going to at least need to have her roots buried every year. It's fine. I'm fine.Anyway, this thing hasn't helped with the monstera all that much, but it has helped with my Dracaena. And if you've worked with these plants, they are very easy to care for plants as long as you have the right water and the light is correct and you water in the correct intervals. This device will near instantly tell you the moister level of your plants soil and there is a handy guide that comes with it that tells you at what dryness levels you should water the most common types of houseplants.I would say use the included guide in conjunction with other sources for houseplant care. I always recommend "How Not to Kill Your Houseplant: Survival Tips for the Horticulturally Challenged" by Veronica Peerless to people with plant care issues. It's very basic and is a great quick start guide to diagnosing issues with the most common house plants.I imagine it would work great with outdoor plants as well, but I've not used it for that and probably wont' because, well, frankly, if you live on the porch or in the garden, life's just tough all over and you get watered when it doesn't rain.

It works. Does exactly what I need. My plants finally look healthy because I’m not over or u see watering them. Easy to read. No batteries needed. I ended up coming back to buy another … efficient, accurate and durable. Reads the moisture quick and accurately.

Helps when you want to water, not drown your plants. Also, it lets you know when they need water.

Works as described. Helpful for big pots. Careful, don't get tip wet (unless testing soil) and don't drop too many times. :)

I had two moisture meters and tested my house and porch plants frequently with them. Then I realized I could not trust the meters, one of which was not cheap, and ordered this one. It seems to be right on the money. It was a great purchase for a good price. I have only had it for one day, but at this point I am pleased with it.

This was purchased for one plant with a deep pot of soil. This item does not seem to work accurately. It may be that I need to clean it occasionally, but I prefer to leave it in the pot. Despite what seemed like heavy watering, the meter did not reflect this. The purchase didn't break the bank, but it has disappointing results.
