Soil Moisture Sensors (WaterScout SM100)

There are many options when it comes to monitoring equipment and as growers looking at the options and making a decision on what will work best in their situation is important. For some it may be the features for others remote connection may be important, but regardless of what is selected the proper set-up is a very important step that is often over looked. When using a device to guide other decisions it is important to get accurate and repeatable data.

Inaccurate data is worse than no data at all. So, ensuring the proper set-up protocol is followed to provide not only accurate results but ones that are repeatable season to season.

The Spectrum Technologies WaterScout SM100 sensors and data logger is the combination selected for soil moisture monitoring. This is a professional set-up that is about 6+ years old and has only needed battery replacements over this time.
