Gardena Smart Sensor 

A smart soil moisture sensor for fully automatic garden watering with the GARDENA smart App

The smart Sensor is part of the GARDENA smart system and provides you directly via the Gardena smart App with the most important information from your garden for optimum and economical watering. It measures soil moisture quickly, reliably and particularly accurately. Together with the smart Gateway and a smart Irrigation Control System from Gardena your lawn and plants are only watered when it is really needed. This avoids unnecessary watering, ensures optimum plant growth and saves precious water.

The elegant and compact design allows the use not only on a lawn or in a flower bed, but also in planters on a balcony or terrace. The particularly large measuring field turns the smart Sensor into a digital root, which carries out its precise measurements directly in the root area of the plants. Whether a little deeper in the soil of your lawn or less deep in flower pots – the sensor works quickly and accurately in diverse soil conditions.

Thanks to the flat top section, the smart Sensor from Gardena can be used in the middle of a lawn area mowed with a classic lawnmower or mowing robot. Two AA batteries, which allow safe operation over an entire garden season, ensure the completely wireless and therefore very flexible operation of the sensor via radio.

The measurement data for the current soil moisture and ground temperature are sent via the Gardena smart Gateway, which is required for operation and is included in all Gardena smart system Start Sets, to the GARDENA smart App on your smartphone or tablet (iOS / Android). Never leave your garden behind. With an intelligent irrigation system and robotic lawnmower, your garden is taken care of, from anywhere.
