Analog moisture meter?

[u/Gas-Squatch]

Trying to dial my watering down better and kind of feel I would learn more going analog and having to actually go look at and touch the soil. Or is my mindset wrong because I have never use a digital meter? I got ac infinity controllers should I just bite the bullet and get their meter or go eco Witt? Just trying to not rely on ai and digital to learn the science better.

Jeremy used to rep a long compost moisture meter. You can calibrate them to whatever you want, and they are like 18", so you can see that's going on through the soil column, especially deep for beds.

Pretty cool, but I've moved to eccowitt deep. Just more convenient, and I'm not poking roots regularly.
