Product Description
Soil temperature drives seed germination, root growth and microbial activity, so a quick reading can guide planting and composting decisions. These dial thermometers push easily into soil, compost or food products and display the result on a large face you can read at a glance, no batteries or setup required.
This listing is for catalog number 82160-12: Thermometer, Dial, -40° to 160°F, 3" Diameter, 12" Stem Length. Each thermometer pairs a long stainless steel stem with a 3 in glass-covered dial face. This listing offers a -40 to 160°F scale with 2 degree resolution in 6 in and 12 in stem lengths, so you can choose a shorter probe for containers and seedbeds or a longer one for deeper soil and compost readings.
