Why Soil Moisture and EC Matter
Soil moisture is not just about water; it’s about timing and balance. Knowing when to water and how much is crucial for plant health and yield optimization. Similarly, understanding soil EC—or electrical conductivity—sheds light on nutrient availability and soil salinity, enabling you to fine-tune fertilization for peak plant performance.
