WaterScout - Model SMEC 300 - Soil Moisture/EC/Temperature Sensor

FromSpectrum Technologies, Inc

SHARE

Track soil moisture, salts, and soil temperature: all with a single sensor! Whether it’s container pots in a greenhouse or turf on a putting green, the salinity of the root zone is a critical element for healthy plant growth. Irrigation, fertilizers, and crop demand all impact salt concentrations. High levels can damage the plant: low levels can lead to nutrient deficiencies.
