Hi.
know you can buy cheaper (under 20 usd( moisture meters, but they are unrealiable.
More reliable one cost much more (80 usd+)
What if I dont want to spend money? Correct me, if I am wrong (most likely) I am 1st time grower.
So my idea:
What about drilling one of the holes at the bottom a bit bigger? Big enough, so you can stick you middle finger through?
If the hole is big enough, you can just lift the pot (on 2 parallel chairs for example, with some space in between), lean under and stick your finger through that bottom hole.
Thats how you will see if bottom is dry or wet. This can ork together with lift the pot method.
Obviously much harder to do with flowering plants in scrog (probably useless in this case)
Is this idea stupid?
