TadetoSoil pH Meter, Digital pH Tester Kit for Soil, Garden, Water, Solution and Food with Alloy Protective Cap and LCD Display, Soil pH Test for Lawns, Food, Gardening with ℃/℉ Display

This is a great little monitor for pH and temperature. I can monitor my pool much easier and all my plants are much happier since I can get the pH down from my well water that is easily up to 9 pH at times. It's pretty easy to use after the calibration, but that is the aggravating part of it. The powder packet busted in the pouch during delivery(?) and it made a mess inside it.

I purchased this meter to help me really dial in my cannabis garden. I wasn’t having any problems, but having another tool at hand couldn’t hurt.I received the meter and after unpacking I calibrated it. Fairly easy to do, instructions were a little confusing at first but figured it out quickly. The readout on the meter was not working properly, did not show complete numbers . Only half of the screen showed numbers. Took out the batteries, reinserted them, pushing buttons at random, no go to get it working properly.Sent it back, and 5 days later I received a new one. This one worked great. Readout works, holds its calibration pretty well and is nice and durable.I’m not sure how precise this meter is quite yet, but am working on that right now. But seems fairly accurate.All in all, I’m pleased with the meter and would recommend it.

Excellent product would recommend. Very easy to use. The readability is very clear. It makes the speed of testing soil extremely fast. It is very accurate right out the box without having to calibrate it. And after dropping it a few times it is very durable

Works great

I purchased this pH probe along with the BlueLab PENSOILPH and Apera AI102G . In side by side testing this probe is as good or better than the BlueLab and Apera at a fraction of the cost. Way to go Tadeto! I sent the other two back. Drift after one month of calibration has only been 0.1 pH unit. Anyone complaining about this probe either received a defective unit or has no experience with pH probes. In the majority of negative reviews, I suspect the latter. I on the other hand, have worked extensively in biomedical labs and understand these probes well. I'm not going waste your time and mine giving a tutorial. Suffice to say, if you know what you are doing this probe is a bargain! Something like this 20 years ago would have sold for over $1000.

I waited until after our major garden harvest to review this pH meter.This pH meter is a bit more complicated to calibrate than the one we use for winemaking, but once the calibration was done, it worked great. I specifically wanted this so that I can gauge the effect of certain types of amendments and compost recipes we are putting on our vegetable garden. We have an extensive garden and grow dozens of different types of crops in a couple hundred varieties. Many of the vegetables have different soil acidity requirements and we're not always reaching those numbers just with annual applications of compost. We needed to see the pH going down for our peppers, for example, after growing lettuce and greens in the same bed the previous year. This meter has given us the needed information, and now that most of the peppers are harvested, I can say that it was well worth the investment in time and energy to put the information into practice. We have had the most abundant pepper and chile harvest EVER! (And I have been gardening for well over 50 years.) We actually grew fewer plants this year, but ended up with more peppers. Just yesterday, I harvested 4 plants each of Aci Sivri and cayenne and 6 plants of Serrano. I didn't take an actual count, but I know I ended up with well over 800 peppers; looks like we will be making a LOT of salsa. Our sweet and medium-hot peppers did equally as well.This pH meter will also be valuable next year when we revamp our orchard and add permaculture to our rows of fruit trees.I highly recommend this essential pH meter for beginning and serious gardens alike who want to make sure their efforts are rewarded with abundant harvests.

I'm not well versed in the world of soil testing, but this seems to work fine. The calibration was a bit awkward for me to understand but I finally got it.

Calibration took a bit of time but was not hard. Very good results
