Wireless Soil Moisture, CE and Temp Sensor
The soil moisture sensor helps determining the optimal watering for the plants by regularly indicating the water content of the soil. The sensor is equipped with a built–in temperature sensor and EC meter – a reliable and easy way to determine if fertilizer nutrient levels are adequate for optimal plant growth.
The sensor is compatible only with Aranet base stations
