Blumat Digital Pro Plus Soil Moisture Sensor – Zero Guesswork, Optimal Results The Blumat Digital Pro Plus takes the guesswork out of watering. Whether you're growing in soil, coco, or living soil, it gives precise moisture readings in millibars – so you know exactly when (and when not) to water. Ideal for dialled-in growers who want healthier roots, less stress, and bigger results. Why Choose the Blumat Digital Pro Plus? Accurate Soil Moisture Readings – Displays root zone moisture as soil tension in millibars Works with Any Medium – Suitable for soil, coco, living soil, raised beds, and pots Easy-to-Read Digital Display – Clear, simple readout with no digging or guesswork Perfect for Living Soil – Monitor moisture without disturbing microbial life Built to Last – Durable Austrian design made for long-term use How It Works The Digital Pro Plus uses a ceramic sensor to measure the suction pressure (tension) that plants exert to draw water from the soil. Lower readings (0–120 mbar) mean the soil is wet; higher readings (200+ mbar) indicate it's drying out. It shows exactly how much water is available to your roots in real time.

Allow to SettleWait 45–60 minutes for accurate readings after inserting the sensor. Take a ReadingPress the power button to display current soil moisture in millibars (mbar). Read the Results 0–120 mbar: Soil is well-watered 120–200 mbar: Ideal moisture range for most plants 200–300 mbar: Time to water 300+ mbar: Too dry – water immediately Use as NeededLeave in place for ongoing monitoring or move between containers as needed. Pro Tip: In living soil, aim to stay between 100–200 mbar to support microbial activity and consistent growth.
