Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Lincoln 8002P measure?
The meter measures the total moisture level of soil to give a quick, on-the-spot indication of how wet or dry soil is at the probe depth. It’s intended for spot-checks rather than continuous logging.
How do I use the soil moisture meter?
Insert the probe into the soil to the desired depth (typically the root zone), wait for the reading to stabilize, then remove and clean the probe. Use multiple checks across the area to make informed irrigation decisions.
Can I calibrate the meter in the field?
Yes — the Lincoln 8002P can be calibrated without special tools or reference materials. Follow the included manufacturer instructions for calibration adjustments to match local soil conditions.
Is this meter suitable for potted plants and landscape use?
Yes. The 24 in. probe and compact design make it suitable for potted plants, garden beds, turf, and trees for quick spot-checks, but it is not intended as a permanent, in-ground data logger.
