What is the proceedure for testing the soil? Some you have to put soil in water to test.

Following the directions included with the product, this meter is intended to be used in the soil in the ground/container. For best results, test soil that is slightly damp. The meter will not give an accurate reading for soil that is removed and immersed in water.

How do you get the plus version?

To the best of my knowledge we do not off the plus version at this time.

What batteries does this tester use?

My Luster Leaf digital soil pH meter uses 3 357/303 batteries. I didn't know this until I removed the battery cover. My packaging did not identify what batteries are used/needed. I purchased this meter over 5 years ago. It is a fickle meter.

There is mention of a Plus meter. What is the cost of it?

Unfortunatley we do not offer the plus meter so I can not offer a suggested price.

How repot a snake plant.  Everything I touch dies? Why

I am unsure as we do not offer plants like that. I recommend reaching out to a professional gardner or University for recommendations.

Where is option for? plus meter for ph pref

Currently we do not have a plus option, I am sorry. We offer this ph meter and then a Digital 3 way analyzer.

What is the pH range this meter covers? I already know my soil is over 8, but want more accurate info.

It covers pH of 3.5 to 9.0.

pH Meter
This meter seems to work well and is very helpful. I'm still getting used to keeping the proper soil for blueberries. I recently replanted them with 1/3 peat, 1/3 bark and 1/3 acid plantng mix. Wish me luck!
