This 3-in-1 soil tester requires no batteries and is plug-and-play. It can measure soil pH, soil moisture, and soil fertility.
To use, insert the probe into more than two-thirds of the soil and take a reading every 3 seconds. If you encounter resistance, try again in another location. Slide the switch and check the 'Soil Moisture / Soil Fertility / PH' result in the display window.
1. Moisture: Turn the instrument's knob to MOIST, MOIST is the moisture switch, the moisture corresponding to the instrument, the left side is dry, the right side is wet.
① Values 1-3 (red part) indicate that it is dry and needs
