A must-have if you are good at killing house plants like me!!
For years I have always managed to kill my house plants, to the point where I just stopped buying them. Turns out I was always OVER watering them, and the roots would then rot and die. This gadget is perfect to avoid this and likewise under-watering - no batteries needed, just put it into the plant soil, and it'll show you if it too wet, too dry, or just right - thats it! Literally that simple. Once used, give it a quick wipe with kitchen roll to clear any soil/moisture (and avoid rusting), then use as required. Your plants will give you an indication of not being quite right - such as floppy leaves, or turning yellow - this little device will let you know if you need to add or leave off the water - end of. It won't rescue every plant, but it'll give the majority a fighting chance - Cheap as chips and very reliable - for non-green fingered folk like myself! 100% worth a tenner

It works!
This is great if youre a plant person and really want to kniw more specifically when to water and when not to. The product is rather big and clunky so in smaller plants its probably.not ideal. However, for bigger potted plants you can easily hide it behind the foliage. The front has easily readable metrics so you dont need more instructions than that. Dry, moist and wet. It literally tells you when to water and when not to. It was quite cheap and it does feel quite cheap - However it does the job and seems pretty sturdy so thats all you need. It doesn't have batteries or anything, it works when the metal rod touches the soil and moves the needle depending on the wetness of your plant.

Excellent moisture meter for keeping container plants perfectly hydrated
Getting a quick, accurate assessment of soil hydration has never been simpler than with this XLUX Soil Moisture Meter. One of its absolute best features is that it requires absolutely no batteries or electricity to operate. You simply insert the probe into the soil, and it gives you an instant, real-time reading on the clear, colour-coded display dial. The scale is incredibly easy to read at a glance, divided into three distinct, user-friendly zones: Red (dry, 1-3), Green (moist, 4-7), and Blue (wet, 8-10). It is a brilliantly simple, fuss-free design that is always ready to use right out of the box. The build quality is excellent, with a durable plastic housing and a sturdy metal probe that doesn't bend easily when pushed into firmer soil. To keep it working perfectly and accurately, all it takes is a quick wipe of the probe with a clean, dry cloth immediately after each use—it shouldn't be left submerged in water or left in damp soil for long periods. Given the low price point, this simple tool offers phenomenal value for money by saving you from either underwatering or accidentally drowning your garden. It is an absolute five-star must-have for any gardener's toolkit.

This is an accurate soil tester
This soil moisture meter is amazing. I wasn't sure whether to water my plants or not and I used this soil meter to see and I was really surprised. It certainly saves my plants from being too dry or waterlogged. A great gadget for all your plants. It reads well, I like the size and appearance too. Worth buying I'd say.

Buy it,your plants will appreciate it!!
I'm a chronic overwaterer in the winter months, so decided to buy a soil meter. I have tested out and so far seems pretty accurate. I would definitely buy it again. You literally don't have to do anything except stick it in the soil, it's very easy to use. Thank you.

Doesn't give an accurate reading
I'm disappointed. I understand that in the air the moisture meter should be between 0-1. When I hold mine upright it says 4-5, when I lay it flat it says 1. It's clearly broken and I'm having to return it 😢

Perfect device to know where water is needed!
With the Uk heatwave purchased this to ensure only watering where needed - I have 60 roses! Chose this as no batteries needed which in my eyes means less things to go wrong with the device as it will get a lot of use so if I need soil PH or other testing abilities I’d purchase something else for those. I’m using kitchen roll to wipe in between each test. It has been really accurate and quite surprising - areas of the garden I thought that would be dry were moist including some pots I’d been watering daily without needing to. Also discovered some very dry zones I wasn’t aware of. I have a mix of clay/chalk soil so moisture retention varies a lot. Really pleased with purchase, will save me time watering only where needed and do my bit to save water!

Trop top pour des belles plantes
Aussitôt arrivé aussitôt utilisé avec cette vague de chaleur, j'ai testé l'appareil et pour dire c'est vraiment trop utile. Heureusement car mon monteur manquait d'eau. Par contre c'est bon pour mes autres plantes. Je recommande pour tout les jardinier en herbe comme moi.

großartige Hilfe besonders für Anfänger
Ich habe von Zimmerpflanzen keine Ahnung und ich habe auch keinen grünen Daumen, aber ich habe mir eine Bougainvillea angeschafft, die ich mir schon länger gewünscht habe, weil ich ihre Blütenpracht so faszinierend schön finde. Seit einigen Wochen darf ich sie nun bereits bewundern, aber sie hat wohl nach dem Stress des Lieferungsprozesses einen großen Teil Blüten und Blätter abgeworfen. Inzwischen treibt sie kräftig, jedoch leider ohne neue Blüten anzusetzen. Ok, ich habe mich informiert und demnach ist unsere Bougainvillea zu feucht. Die Pflanze steht in einem Gemisch aus Erde und Substrat, die Oberfläche schaut trocken aus, auch wenn ich den Finger hineinsteckte fühlte es sich sehr trocken an. Dann habe ich entdeckt, dass es speziell für Pflanzen Feuchtigkeitsmesser gibt und diesen hier aufgrund der guten Rezensionen bestellt. Das war genau richtig, denn sonst hätte ich meine blühende Schönheit wohl bald kaputtgepflegt. Das Messgerät kommt ohne Batterien oder ähnliches aus, es wird einfach in den Boden bzw Pflanztopf eingesteckt, binnen Sekunden wird die jeweilige Feuchtigkeit angezeigt. Anders als ich vermutet hatte, bleibt das Messgerät aber nicht in der Pflanze, es muss immer wieder schnell entnommen werden, dann abgewischt und außerhalb der Pflanze verbleiben, denn sonst würde die Messeinheit wohl korrodieren. Ich war hochgradig irritiert, wir hatten im Bereich der Bougainvillea zT sehr hohe Temperaturen und ich habe sie vor mehr als 8 Tagen zuletzt gewässert und dennoch zeigte mir die Anzeige, dass zuviel Feuchtigkeit im Boden ist. Das war auch bei unseren anderen beiden Pflanzen der Fall. Ich war genauso überzeugt, dass unsere Glücksfeder trocken sein müsste von meinem Gefühl ausgehend, aber nein, sie war ebenfalls leicht zu feucht. Ohne die Anzeige durch dieses Messgerät hätte ich dies nie bemerkt und unseren Pflanzen somit nicht gut getan. Ich möchte dieses Messgerät nicht mehr missen wollen. Für Laien, die sich mit Zimmerpflanzen kaum auskennen, ist diese Hilfe besonders empfehlenswert, denn es schenkt Klarheit darüber, ob die Pflanzen wirklich Wasser benötigen.Das Gerät ist sehr leicht, wirkt gut verarbeitet und ist auch gut ablesbar. Also absolute Kaufempfehlung für diesen nützlichen Helfer.

Le mie piante ringraziano!
L aggeggio più utile degli ultimi 20 anni! Facile, intuitivo, pratico, non serve ricaricarlo o metterci le batterie Segnala il livello di umidità del terreno, in tutta la profondità del vaso Molto spesso la superficie del vaso è asciutta ma in profondità è molto umida e istintivamente bagnavo ancora le mie piante, finendo per annegarle e quindi ucciderle. Da quando ho comprato questo sensore, è molto facile capire se il terreno è davvero asciutto o meno. Lo amo
