• Indispensable for plant cultivation - this multifunctional electronic soil tester is an indispensable instrument in cultivation of vegetables, fruits, flowers, and lawns. It will also be useful for enthusiasts of pot plants!
• Four functions – this electronic tester will allow you to measure the soil pH (acidity), humidity, temperature, and insolation values in your garden, backyard, or greenhouse, or even on your balcony!
• Simple to use - thanks to its few simple buttons, the tester is very easy and convenient to use. The device features also a backlit display, as well as a battery charge indicator, thanks to which you always know whether it is ready to use.
• Wide range of measurements - the device enables measuring temperature in two scales (°C or °F) and indicates 5 levels of humidity, 12 levels of pH value, and 9 levels of insolation.
• The set includes a 4-in-1 electronic soil tester and a user manual. Note! The device required a new 9 V - 6F22 battery (not included) to work correctly.

Parameters such as pH (acidity), humidity, temperature, and soil insolation have a substantial impact on healthy development and beautiful appearance of the plants cultivated, as well as on the size and quality of crops obtained. Thus, if you want to take your cultivation of vegetables, fruits, and flower to a higher level, you have to equip yourself with one indispensable device – a multifunctional 4-in-1 electronic soil tester. Thanks to our device you will learn the value of all the above listed soil parameters in a quick and reliable manner - in your garden, backyard, or greenhouse, on your balcony, or in the flowerpots at your home! Out tester will also come in handy when caring for lawns!

The knowledge of the pH value of soil facilitates planning to a great extent, and later it helps maintain optimal conditions for the plants cultivated. The majority of garden plants grows best in soil with a slightly acidic or neutral pH value (6.0-7.0). The soil with such parameters is friendly towards development of beneficial microorganisms, and also makes mineral ingredients readily available to the plant roots. A soil that is too acidic kills beneficial bacteria and invites fungal mould, as well as formation of water-insoluble chemical compounds from minerals.

Soil acidity classes:

Very acidic soil - pH up to 4.5

Acidic soil - pH of 4.5 - 5.5

Slightly acidic soil - pH of 5.6 - 6.5

Neutral soil - pH of 6.6 - 7.2

Alkaline soil - pH above 7.2

Adding sulphur to the soil reduces its pH, while adding lime increases it. Since the amount of these additives depends on the soil type, it is necessary to take advantage of appropriate gardening manual when choosing them. Lower doses of sulphur (lime) are used for lightweight soils that contain little humus, while the higher ones are used for fertile soils that are abundant in it. Proper pH value of soil is maintained by using appropriate fertilisers.
