Lincoln Meters
The
Lincoln soil moisture meters were designed to work in conjunction with
the wilt point of different plants and vegetables. It's ideal application
is in potted plants but it has been proven to be successful with crops
like corn, potatoes, tomatoes, and others. With this top reading meter
you can quickly glance at the display and see at what saturation level
the soil is at.
Works with any type of soil. Each unit comes with instructions
and a general wilt point reading for 26 different vegetable crops and
21 different plants. The Lincoln meters are available in three lengths:

What our customers are saying about
Lincoln Meters
"This meter gives me excellent readings in all my potted plants
in the nursery. I know it says that I can use it in the field plantings
but I'm not convinced. I'm sticking with tensiometers on those crops but
I will keep testing the Lincoln meter in those areas."
S. Geiger (Lakeland, FL)
"I use the Lincoln meter to measure soil moisture in container
media. It is a good basic instrument because you can check moisture at
various depths and as many containers as needed. The only caveat is to
make sure the probe tip is in good contact with the media. Sometimes I
get erroneous readings when checking media that has large air spaces due
to pine bark in the mix."
R. Crawford (Melbourne, FL)
"I ordered your Lincoln 36" moisture detector. I was specifically looking for a tool to tell me if my four Phoenix Dactylifera's were getting enough water in the harsh Las Vegas, Nevada climate. The detector worked wonderfully. Thank you"
