Anyone have any experience with them. I want one to test farmers fields without waiting 10 days for lab work when checking out problems. Looking at a Kelway. Any response is welcome.

I have a little ph test kit, from Cornell. I think it is pretty useless, mostly testing for lime level. The meter sounds like a good idea. Are they expensive?

$70-150. One I'm looking at is about $70. The more expensive ones also tell you other things as moisture, light, etc.

I bought a cheap one and it is useless......says everything is 7.0 unless really acidic or basic.
