Is this combo meter for soil use?

I use this meter for soil, there is a soil ph tip you can buy for it, I use the ppm tip for testing prior to feeding and the ph tip included prior to watering and feeding. Hope this helps

Not even sure what a kind of meter that is. Sorry. I will say you will be better off buying one of the better ( Higher priced) units. You can hook the sensors right on the wires inside the circuit box in the house. This one is cheap junk with no support and are not even sold by B&D; anymore.

No. You need a total dissolved solids (TDS) meter for that. You can pick one up in the internet for ~$10.

No you cant push it directly in the soil. To ph soil, you would need to mix your soil in some neutral ph solution or ph'd water, then use your device to measure the ph.

Yes. I'm a hitting and conditioning mechanic.I use it for low-voltage all the time. This is a good all-around meter.The only thing is getting accurate temperature Reading. It usually is it arranged between 3 or 4 degrees.

I don't know. I use this for domestic applications only. I bought it because none of my old meters were Catagory 3.

No!! Use it inside. There are some things I think are lacking on this meter. But when I check my system the first thing I check is the voltage and amps on this meter. I have several meters that are always on. This one is the easiest. Dan

I have not attempted to use it in that manner. I am an orchid grower and use it to measure natural light as well as full spectrum grow light.

Yes, but if you use it for pure hydroponics you will always get full wet because it registers how much water there is between the two probes. To be of use for moisture testing it has to be inserted in soil...or sand..or any medium that contains moisture. But if you are asking if the ph feature will work in only liquid the answer is yes.

i actually bought this as a test for both soil & hydro however since my crops were ruined my testing did not finish however the one plant i did use this on did give me a bigger amount of buds & i will soon test out my experiment soon but flowering wise id say yes but if you have a bigger grow you would need alot more of this as it can be kind of expensive & there are always cheaper ways of doing it. Best for soil in my opinion but can also be used for Hydro.

Yes, the soil should be wet and soft. I have used this device but for me it shows similar readings no matter what I test so I am not sure how accurate it is.

Don't know....I've only used it for grass seed and fertilizer and it doesn't work great for that either.

It only measures total dissolved solids, as gauged by electrical conductivity. If that will help you with nutrient levels, great, but I suspect the answer is really no.

I would be lying to you if I said I knew. I'm not even sure what you're asking. I bought this multimeter just for one purpose and nothing else. Sorry, I wasn't much help.

Ms Sonja, The Luster Leaf 1880 Rapitest meter has probes measuring 3¼". Personally, I would prefer a longer set of probes, it is difficult to measure values at depth greater than 3¼". But don't despair, in most cases one can root down (pun intended) into the root region and pull up a better measurement.Given the price and its accuracy, this tool is a must for most growers and your plants will love the extra attention, perhaps they will "grow like weeds."Happy Gardening and keep on growing, Michael & the Crew @ Synergy Aquaponics

It is not recommended. This is meant to be used as a calibration solution to calibrate pH meters. If you need to adjust the pH up or down, we recommend using a pH Up or Down Adjustment solution.

That's not a yes or no answer. It depends on what you need it for. I wanted to measure out and mix exact amounts of dry plant fertilizer to reconstitute with water and store in bottles for my aquarium.
