Bonsai Tree Moisture Meter

Description Knowing when to water is essential to the successful maintenance of your bonsai tree. Over watering is bad. Under watering is bad. A good moisture meter will remove all of the guess work from watering! To use, insert probe at root ball level, note moisture level and water tree if needed, generally at level "3" for most Bonsai trees. Remove probe from soil and wipe clean after each use, store in dry place. Specifications Measures moisture at root level. Used to prevent over and under watering. Includes scale that ranges from 1 (Very Dry) to 10 (Just Watered Wet). Re-water at level 3 for most Bonsai trees. Meter measures electrical impulses in the soil and will not respond to water alone (as being submerged in a glass.) DO NOT leave in soil between uses or as a gauge. IMPORTANT: Wipe clean and dry after each use for accurate readings.
