Bluelab Soil pH Pen

The Bluelab Soil pH Pen is purpose-built for direct measurement in soil and substrate, while also offering the versatility to measure nutrient solution.

For growers who want to monitor pH more quickly, it delivers on-the-spot measurements directly at the root zone, making routine spot checks faster.

Inspired by proven Bluelab Soil pH Probe technology, the spear-tip probe is purpose-built for easier penetration and improved root-zone contact. It delivers professional-grade pH and temperature measurements across soil, coco, potting mixes, rockwool, other substrates, and nutrient solution.

Product Features:

  • NEW tapered-tip probe inspired by proven Bluelab Soil pH Probe technology
  • Direct pH and temperature measurement
  • Tapered-tip design for improved penetration and root-zone contact
  • Simple two-point pH calibration
  • Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)
  • Backlit LCD display with hold-reading function
  • Waterproof design
  • Auto-off function to make the most of battery life
  • KCl-filled storage cap/dibber keeps the pH sensor hydrated when not in use
  • KCl-Keep Plug seals the storage cap/dibber during use to help prevent spills and contamination

Backed by trusted Bluelab technology

The Bluelab Soil pH Pen measures pH and temperature directly at the root zone across soil, coco, potting mixes, rockwool and nutrient solution.

Its professional-grade tapered-tip probe allows for easy penetration and effective contact with the growing medium, eliminating the need for slurry preparation.

With up to 2× faster pH response*, growers can get reliable readings sooner, making routine spot checks of pots, beds and slabs quicker and easier.

*Based on internal testing versus previous-generation PENSOILPH units. Response time was measured as the time required to reach within 0.1 pH of a stable reading under tested conditions. Results may vary.

The fundamentals of soil growing

All plants need a balanced diet of nutrients (food) in order to grow. However, plants can only access nutrients if the pH (potential Hydrogen) of your growing medium falls within the correct range.

Contrary to popular belief, all growers need to measure pH, regardless of whether you’re growing in soil or in solution. That’s because pH plays an important role in making your nutrients soluble so that they can be absorbed by plants. If your soil is too alkaline or too acidic, your plants won’t be able to get all the nutrients they need. 

Temperature also plays an important role in plant health, influencing nutrient uptake, growth rate and overall development.
