Soil EC Meter Conductivity Tester

Take control of your soil health with the Soil EC and Temperature Tester EC-8801 — your essential tool for precision farming, greenhouse cultivation, and research labs. This professional-grade soil meter accurately measures electrical conductivity (EC) and soil temperature from -30°C to 80°C (or -22°F to 176°F), helping you monitor water-soluble salt levels and prevent salt buildup that can hinder crop growth.

Equipped with a detachable, corrosion-resistant stainless steel probe, HD backlit LCD display, automatic temperature compensation (ATC), and IP67 waterproof rating, this meter is perfect for day and night use in demanding environments.

Whether you're a commercial grower, agronomist, soil scientist, greenhouse manager, or hobby gardener, this EC tester supports a wide range of applications: from potted plants, orchards, and agricultural fields to pastureland.

🌱 The impact of low soil EC values

Main manifestations:
The soluble salt concentration in the soil is too low, indicating insufficient fertility.
Crops do not get enough nutrients (such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc.).

Harm to plants:
Slow growth, yellowing and shrinking leaves.
Decreased yield and poor fruit quality.
Especially serious for greenhouses or high-density plantings due to fierce root competition.

Common causes:
Over-irrigation leads to nutrient loss
Poor soil or insufficient fertilization
No replacement of nutrient soil or improvement of soil structure for a long time

Solutions:
Increase the frequency or concentration of scientific fertilization
Use compound fertilizer or organic fertilizer to adjust fertility
Regularly test EC values ​​to avoid nutrient deficiency

🔥 The impact of high soil EC values

Main manifestations:
Indicates that the soil contains excessive water-soluble salts.

Harm to plants:
Inhibit seed germination and seedling growth.
The root system has difficulty absorbing water, resulting in "physiological drought".
Causes salt damage symptoms such as leaf tip scorch, leaf yellowing, and root rot.
Soil compaction and microbial imbalance.

Common causes:
Excessive or frequent application of fertilizers
High salt content in irrigation water
Soil that has not been cleaned or diluted for a long time (especially in greenhouses)

Solutions:
Use deep irrigation with clean water (leaching method) to dilute the salt
Reduce the frequency of fertilization or use low-salt organic fertilizers
Improve the drainage system to avoid salt accumulation
