Substrate meter for measuring water content

Visualise your data real time

Usable for rockwool and other substrate material
Want to optimise your water management? This sensor tells you exactly when it's time for irrigation. Insert a threshold and receive a message or email when it's time for some extra water.

What does the substrate moisture sensor measure?
The sensor is designed for measuring moisture in substrates. It also monitors electrical conductivity and temperature of the substrate. A lot of our customers use this sensor as their rockwool moisture meter, but it can also be used for other substrate material.

How does it work?
The slim stainless steel needles can easily be inserted into the substrate. By using real-time data from soil sensors, growers can use a data driven approach to irrigation and nutrient delivery. All the measurements are real time visualised on the 30MHz data platform. Custom alerts can provide insights on which crops are in need of irrigation, and which are in need of drainage.
