Long Stem Compost Thermometer for Gardening - Stainless Steel Testing Thermometer With 1.5" Dial Display - Fahrenheit and Celsius - Easily Monitor Temperature in Compost Heaps and Soil (16")

Great thermometer. Priced well. Very useful for determining when to plant in my area where soil temps can damage seedlings even when the days seem warm. Works great and is easy to use.

Se queda estático,no mide la húmeda

So far it works fine. I am using it when making my own soil for medical cannabis indoor cultivation to make sure the soil had cooked and the temperature dropped below 100° F but preferably below 80°. The probe itself is a bit too thin for my liking but if careful with it I'm sure it'll last a while. I saw another review from a guy who used this exact device in his compost pile but he left it stuck in the pile outdoors all year round and somehow the top broke off. It was still working but it was kind of hanging what looked like a wire of some sort that was holding the probe and the top piece together. I'm not sure how he managed to break it because supposedly he didn't do anything to it that it just broke but I just can't see how that can happen unless physically break it yourself. Anyhow, I've had it for 2 months already and I have been checking 5 separate 55 gallon totes with soil and I'm getting what seems like accurate readings and it does the job. I couldn't ask for more. Highly recommend!

Easy read. Inexpensive $10. Small garden. Seems accurate.

Good and durable had it out there all winter and probably stepped on a few times still works great
