Amazon moisture sensor. This is working extremely well.
Been test using it for awhile now. Remarkable how much water and how long clay loam holds onto it.
So kinda an eyes wide open light bulb moment. Appears my chief take away is my clay based loamy soil is a net positive for moisture retention. Thinking Moisture levels are also buffered in such soils by subsurface transfer and whicking. Believe this last point helps prevent Summer BES & Dill Rings. Added Key is ensuring Max availability of nutrients in the soil solution. Often tie up issues prevent this. Will be Working all year to continually charge the soils for maximum CEC.
