Calibrates to Your Soil or Compost, 0-10 Wetness Scale
Powered by One AAA Battery (Included)

Used by composters, farmers, and nurseries across country, the REOTEMP 24" Garden and Compost Moisture Meter is perfect for measuring the moisture of tree roots, soil and compost piles. The unit is easily user-calibrated to an “ideal” moisture level, as chosen by the user. This flexible calibration feature allows the REOTEMP moisture meter to be customized to a diverse number of applications. From fruit trees to tomatoes or compost, you decide what your ideal moisture level is with a turn of the calibration screw on the back of the unit. Just get your soil or compost to the moisture level that works for you and adjust the needle to a "5" on the 0 to 10 scale. Then, when you come back again to check your compost or soil you'll know if it's too dry or too wet. If the reading is above "5" it's too wet, if it's below "5" it's too dry.

While composting or gardening you often may wonder: How wet's your soil? Now you will know and be able to more efficiently compost, garden or simply know if your plants need more water. The 0 to 10 scale of the MM24 indicates a relative "wetter" or "dryer". The moisture meter measures moisture at the tip of the probe. Calibration instructions are conveniently printed on the side of the meter head and included on the back of the box. The REOTEMP moisture meter uses 1 AAA battery. Because the probe uses electrical conductivity, the presence of salt can affect readings by making your soil more or less conductive. Therefore, the REOTEMP moisture meter is not recommended for situations where salt content varies drastically between testing samples. This product is not recommended for extremely hard or compacted soils, for these types of soils loosen the soil with a shovel before inserting the meter.
