Is the WiFi hub necessary in order to use this soil meter ?

No, it could be used alone and the display will auto-refresh every 1 min. However, if you pair it with the hub, you can enjoy loads of smart features integrate with other RainPoint smart device to build fully auto-watering system.

Why the moisture reading varies in different spots of a houseplant pot?

Due to factors like soil composition, the way you water, pot shape, plant root distribution, causing some areas to retain more moisture than others, especially if the pot is not evenly watered or if the soil has uneven drainage properties.

Why does my soil moisture meter reads dry even though I just watered my plants?

It could be due to several factors:1.Root bound plant;2.Too much sand or drainage-improving materials;3.Incorrect insertion of the meter;4.Faulty soil moisture meter;5.Hydrophobic soil;6.Using too little water.

Do I need to clean the sensor after each use like most of other soil meters in the market?

No, you can leave our soil meter in the soil and get real-time reading 24/7. As our sensor is designed to be corrosion-proof, that why it has much longer lifespan than others.

What should I be aware of when use soil meter products?

In order to get accurate result, aim for a firm,but not overly tight or loose contact with the soil. And also try to avoid forceful pushing, as this can damage the roots or the meter.
