XLUX Soil Moisture Meter, Plant Water Monitor, Hygrometer Sensor for Gardening, Farming, Indoor and Outdoor Plants, No Batteries Required

This is such a great tool for plants. I love the durability and the ease of use. It doesn’t take any batteries either which is a plus!!! Simply place the tool in to the soil and it will read the moisture level. Great for house plants as well so you don’t have to worry about over watering and root rot. It’s a great little functioning tool to use on either indoor or outdoor plants!

I have a growing collection of indoor plants—prayer plants, a peace lily, a Calathea named Vesper—and I used to rely on guesswork or finger pokes to decide when to water. Not anymore.This meter is simple to use—no batteries, no fuss. Just stick it in the soil, and the needle gives you a clear and accurate moisture reading. What I love most is how it helps me understand the differences between each plant’s needs. My snake plant likes to stay on the dry side, while my parlor palm needs a bit more regular watering. The XLUX helps me keep them all happy without second-guessing.The only heads-up: make sure you clean the probe after each use, and don’t leave it in the soil permanently. Just dip it in when you need a check and pull it out when you're done.Highly recommend if you're a plant parent trying to avoid root rot disasters or crispy leaves. It’s now my go-to plant care tool!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Fantastic meter. Very simple and mechanical, needs no batteries, no fancy electronics that are likely to break. Just shows me if my potatoes and tomatoes need to be watered when I can't get my finger blindly all the way down into my grow bags. Zero issues, easy to use, and one of the most useful gardening tools I've ever bought.

It worked well, until it didn't. Purchased May of 2023, kept it in the house when not using.Last month it stopped working. Almost killed some of my plants.

Best tool ever for a person who tends to over water plants. This tool actually measures the moisture in potted plants makes taking care of my plants easy peasy. Its accurate reliable and for the money its worth it because im not repurchaseing my plants.

Happy with this product.. I like the simplicity of it yet it has given me the results I needed.

I have been using this water meter for several months now and it has worked really well. I have about 20 different plant varieties, and they all need watered at different times. I would have killed half of my plants by now if I did not have a meter. The back of the box also lists most of the common household plants to inform you when to water, which has been helpful. These are particularly important for Fiddle Leaf Figs or African milk trees - as they both cannot endure too much watering or they will perish.

As advertised. This is strictly a hygrometer, it does not provide soil PH.
