The Bluelab EC / ppm meter, temperature meter is a robust handheld meter for measuring conductivity and temperature.
Key features:
completely waterproof (not just drip-proof)
selectable units (due to customization of settings)
flat electrode (for easier cleaning and maintenance)
automatic temperature compensation for accurate readings
automatic shut-off (to extend battery life)
1 AAA alkaline battery included
Why measure conductivity and temperature?
Every plant needs the right amount of food (nutrients) to thrive. By measuring conductivity, it is possible to ensure that plants have access to the right amount of nutrients at all stages of growth. Moisture measurement optimizes irrigation cycles and water consumption while controlling the risk of root infections. Finally, regular temperature measurements can detect temperature fluctuations and optimize root functions.
