Description
The soil pH meter is used to measure the soil pH value. The pH and temperature can be stored directly on the SD card. The special pH electrode of the pH meter is manufactured so that it is possible to measure with the pH meter in loosened soil. Temperature compensation is either manual or automatic via the supplied temperature sensor.Please always make sure that the measuring principle requires a minimum residual moisture in the soil. Thus, this soil pH meter is the ideal solution for the accurate measurement of soil pH, in substrates, for horticultural irrigation solutions used in greenhouses and also in agricultural products and plants. The meter is always factory calibrated. A continuous recalibration of the pH meter is carried out by means of the supplied calibration standards buffer solutions. The calibration data remains stored when the battery is changed. In general, you can simply pierce the electrode into the ground and read the pH directly on the digital display. If you would like to carry out a measurement according to DIN or if you can not penetrate deep enough into the soil due to soil hardness, then you should prepare a DIN soil solution and use it for the exact measurement.Professional gardeners as well as environmentalists know how much depends on the condition of the soil. Depending on its composition it may be very fertile, or absolutely inappropriate for cultivation. pH level acidity of the soil, together with the temperature, moisture content and of course amount of light determine the quality of the soil, in the garden, on the fields, in the greenhouses, winter gardens, on the terrace, flowers beds or in the pots at home. pH meter with a thin electrode is applicable anywhere where pH value of a soil sample should be measured. Due to the thin long tip, penetrating the soil is very easy, and the measurement is immediate. The results indicate whether certain measures should be taken to change a too acidic or too alkalic medium in the soil and to adjust it in correspondence with the plans that are growing or will be growing in the soil. Not all kinds of plants require the same soil. And there is no ideal standard which all the gardeners should strive for. Neutral pH for soil is between 6.5 to 7, but there are many agricultural cultures that need 6 and even 5. A correctly prepared soil sample is sufficient for getting a reliable result and making a conclusion about the soil condition. Electrode should be handled with care and poss
