## Description

Great prices on your favourite Gardening brands, and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: Good value and appears to work well with HomeAssistant and ZHA - So far so good, paired with no trouble to ZHA on Home Assistant, I recommend leaving them near a hub or your cordinator for a few hours once paired, and do the firmware update (supported over HA but they like to be near to a hub or repeater to do this reliably) They seem well made, and the waterproofing looks good enough to use them on the outdoor plant pots I've put them in. Good value for the price. I'll be ordering more for the coutyard garden behind my house.
Review: Unsure of accuracy and they are quite large - Paired pretty easily with my home assistant. I'm a bit sceptical about accuracy but they do change when plants are watered. They are quite a bit bigger than I expected.

## Features

- Zigbee Hub Required: Compatible with standard Zigbee 3.0, including Home Assistant (ZHA & Z2M) and SmartThings Aeotec. A Zigbee Hub is needed for optimal performance. NOTE: Not compatible with Alexa Echo Devices.
- Remote Monitoring and Automation: Receive real-time alerts on your smartphone, allowing you to take action anytime, anywhere, ensuring your plants get the right care. Integrated with smart home systems, these sensors enable automated watering schedules, so you can manage and control your garden's irrigation remotely, saving both time and effort.
- Reliable and Accurate: Equipped with a sensing probe for instant and accurate moisture readings, this meter is suitable for most environments, ensuring your plants receive the right amount of water. Consider Zigbee's signal range, better for indoor using.
- Capacitive Monitoring: Unlike traditional probes, capacitive sensors are less affected by soil salinity and pH, offering greater durability and a longer lifespan in various soil types. Suitable for various gardening places including farms, greenhouses, nurseries, gardens, and potted plants.
- More Smart Assistant Supported: With the Smart Bridge MZ1 (sold separately), integrate with Apple Home and Google Home to monitor plants and create automation routines via an app. Additionally, it supports software OTA (Over-The-Air) updates, allowing for effortless firmware upgrades.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How to use the soil moisture sensor ？**
A: Insert the sensor into the soil, aligning the marking line with the soil surface for accurate measurement. Create automation or manually water the plant when soil moisture drops below a set value, based on your plant and soil conditions.

**Q: When the Third Reality Smart Soil Moisture Sensor paired with Hubitat, but can't see temperature and humidity states?**
A: Please change the device type to "Third Reality Soil Moisture Sensor" in Hubitat, then it should work properly. Note: Update the Hubitat system to latest version.

**Q: Does it compatible with Alexa Echo devices?**
A: No, it can not compatible with Echo devices. Alexa does not support humidity, so it is not recommended to use.

**Q: Why is the soil moisture and temperature sensor occasionally offline?**
A: If your soil sensor is located far from the hub, it may go offline. Consider adding some Zigbee repeater to enhance the Zigbee range, like Zigbee smart plugs, Zigbee smart bulbs, etc.

**Q: Why are the data from the Soil Temperature and Humidity Sensor different from regular temperature and humidity meter?**
A: This is because the measurement methods are different. The Soil Temperature and Humidity Sensor only detects soil surface temperatures for reference purposes only.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unsure of accuracy and they are quite large
*by T***Y on 24 December 2025*

Paired pretty easily with my home assistant. I'm a bit sceptical about accuracy but they do change when plants are watered. They are quite a bit bigger than I expected.

### ⭐ Rubbish, returned the next day
*by M***R on 16 October 2025*

Nice and easy to setup, got it connected in no time. Placed it in the garden (it's a soil sensor after all) and within a couple of hours it wasn't connected. Restarted it, connected, put it in a different spot in case it was originally too far away, showed as connected....after a few hours it was offline again. Rubbish. Returned the next day.
