When you can test something easily and accurately, you can manage it, with Bluelab’s product range of pH meters and pH controllers and nutrient meters and controllers, measure parameters such as pH, conductivity and temperature.  They’re used worldwide in applications from home-based hydroponics through to the most demanding of commercial food-growing environments.

If you are still measuring root zone moisture, nutrient (EC) and temperature the hard way, now you can measure root zones faster with Pulse, the new handheld root zone meter that goes where you grow. Pulse connects directly to the Pulse app on your smartphone, for instant and accurate crop-heath management. You can measure directly in soils, coco coir blends and potting mixes.

Pulse quickly and consistently measures moisture, nutrient (measured in conductivity) and temperature directly in the root zone without the need for pour-throughs, slurries or extractions. Pulse connects directly to your smartphone via the Pulse app for automated data collection, measurement comparison, storage and exporting. It works across a wide range of growing media including soil, coco coir, potting mix and nutrient solution.

You can measure, compare and correct faster than you have before, achieving better yield, reducing shrink and growing healthier plants. Pulse is always with you: handheld, portable and always available for essential and immediate measurements.

 

Know your moisture levels – optimise irrigation cycles and water consumption, and control risk of root infections. Also, know your nutrient level, optimising growth by ensuring the right amount of nutrients for the growth stage of your plants. Know your temperature; optimise root function, spot temperature fluctuations; and control health of biologicals, and discover new insight to improve plant performance and knowledge, measure more locations, faster with direct sensing technology, and see all your root zone data, interrogate and make notes in the Pulse app.

With Pulse you can set nutrient and moisture range targets and get immediate, real-time feedback in the field, empowering growing teams to measure more without all the know-how, so for more information on pH testers, best soil pH testers, pH water testers and handheld pH meters please go to https://bluelab.com .
