This was truly a LIFE saver! errrr LAWN saver :) - I did such an outstanding job during my complete lawn overhaul when simultaneously tilling deep into the clay layer below the dominant sandy top layer mixing the two layers together in order to provide some semblance of water retention for my grass. I completely forgot that I did that and thanks to the whisperer's moisture detection levels I've been able to identify that I have in fact been drowning my new lawns for over 2 years now resulting in extremely poor growth performance. I was baffled! I did everything right and went the extra mile on everything I did to insure amazing results. Well I followed the neighbors' around me and their watering schedulings like an idiot! No one does a complete lawn makeover like I did anymore as they all just order new grass and have their lawns sodded. Well, that means they all suffer from the same nasty sandy top layer that doesn't retain any water and they have to water the hell out of their lawns everyday to keep them green and growing. I lose such a trivial amount of soil moisture on a sunny hot day thanks to all of my previous efforts, and it was your sensors that solved the riddle!!!!!! Why NONE of my reseeding would survive. Why I had so many blank spots where sprinklers merged and overlapped when watering. My summer water bill is going to be a fraction of what it's been from now on, and i've already observed dramatic improvements in my lawn along with a seeding project that's actually working!!!! The customer service i've received has been OUTSTANDING!! Show the sensor blade the proper amount of respect when inserting and reinserting it into your lawn's soil as it is designed to disturb the least amount of your lawn/soil while leaving a minimal "footprint" as possible. The blade is not very thick so as long as you pay attention when inserting to verify you are going in perpendicular to the ground, and not at a funky angle, otherwise you will be putting unwarranted stress on the blade. When I was running around my yards collecting multiple sensor readings (as I am sure all new owners will initially do), in order to identify any trouble spots not receiving their proper irrigation, I broke a sensor blade. Customer service bent over backwards to assist me with a replacement ASAP. I started out purchasing 2 sensors to give them a shot, and now I have 4 because they are that AWESOME!!! The smart watering function is not immediate as the sensors have to "learn" your lawn's needs and once they collect enough data they begin to create an optimized watering schedule whilst simultaneously functioning as watchdogs with their persistent monitoring and intervening when additional waterings are needed!!!! Review: One bad device, but high quality product and software. - Ordered one. It set up and worked fine. Ordered a second and readings appeared way off compared to the first. Sent it back for a replacement. Received replacement, and the device again reported bad measurements. Temperature was reported as 486 degrees F and soil moisture at 1%. Unit finally decided to work, but only intermittently. After contacting them, received one email message from tech support with little advice. Finally, a very nice customer support agent agreed to send another replacement unit. I also ordered a third unit at this time. I received the two additional units, and they also worked fine. On reflection after experience with these new units, I believe I was in error in sending back the second unit. I concluded that it was bad based on distinctively different measurements from the first. Yet, it turns out that moving the unit around would likely have resolved the issue. In other words, I was too impatient in sending back the second unit. I now have three good units up and running. They all work fine, and are reporting reasonable numbers for light, temperature, and moisture. I now think that this is a GREAT product that, while expensive, will save me a lot of money spent on watering my lawn. They are well worth the price. The software is highly professional. Technical support could be better, but customer support is excellent. Thus, I highly recommend this product to any who are reluctant to buy. ## Features - Soil Data Provider : ‌The Netro Plant Sensor measures soil moisture, temperature, and ambient light levels at the location where the plant is situated.

It took a little effort to get it recognized by the Netro program. I am glad they have a web version of the application, as setting it up for the circuits you want to have the sensor control is better on the laptop version. Why I got it was that I had an area that was underwatered, and the best solution I could think of was to get the sensor moisture meter to take charge of the amount of water applied. That area has improved in the time after I set up the sensor. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/222326515-netro-whisperer-2nd-gen-smart-plant-sensor-app-baed-wifi](https://www.desertcart.us/products/222326515-netro-whisperer-2nd-gen-smart-plant-sensor-app-baed-wifi) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
