Useful and easy-to-use
For the price, I recommend it. I expect to use it frequently since we have a drought in Northern California. The moisture level reading is relative and will not match the moisture content calculations of a smart sprinkler controller. That's OK. Use this device after you have watered the plants, and you will be able to distinguish over-watered and under-watered plants. Put the probe tip under water. Mine only went to 9 because our water lacks minerals. Now I know the wettest possible reading. The soil moisture meter can be thrust down several inches into the lawn to reach the roots of the grass and measure moisture at root level. You can tell the difference between grass in shade and grass in sun. See first two photos of grass. The plastic top is not very strong, so grasp by the stem when pushing down. This is most important with grass. The meter can be used around shrubs. We use a thick layer of mulch to conserve water. You must push the probe deep, all the way through the mulch and into the soil to get a reading at the roots. See second pair of photos to see the big difference between soil moisture of the mulch (very low) and the soil below (wet). Works best with potted plants. Probe is strong enough and long enough to measure soil moisture several inches into the soil. Comes with a small micro-fiber cloth which is easily lost. Might be useful indoors, but outdoors, your hands will get dirty. Does not have a hook or mounting hole to hang on a wall or pegboard. It does the basic job intended and should last for several seasons, and DOES NOT require batteries. It's a good value.

When to water your plants!!
I really love this. I purchased this more than a year ago and I use it constantly. I have a tendency to over water my plants which causes them to die. Now using this to tell me whether the plant is very dry or very wet. Great tool.

No es correcta la lectura
Estos medidores de humedad son muy útiles para ver el nivel de humedad de las plantas, sin embargo funcionan por un rato y hay que reemplazarlos. En mi caso este es el 3 que compro y el que menos duró. Normalmente me duran 3-4 meses pero este duró menos de unas semanas cuando ya no detecta la Humedad. Si volveré a comprar el aparato pero éste no.
