Since so many people have trouble deciding on when to water their plants, is having a moisture meter one answer? I see many at Amazon. Some do not even need batteries, are inexpensive, and highly rated overall. I do well and do not lose many plants because I screwed up the watering. But, I know one fault is when I am lazy, or in a hurry and do not stick my finger into each pot before deciding on water. Often the soil will look dry when it is wet and vice versa. I have lost plants because of that. Of course if I am in a hurry I'd probably not use the meter either. Any one here have experience using moisture meters? Gene
