Precise Garden Rain Gauge — Accurate, Durable, Easy to Use Key benefits Measure rainfall accurately to make informed watering decisions and prevent both drought stress and overwatering. Simple installation and robust construction for reliable outdoor use across seasons. Clear, easy-to-read calibration helps you track small amounts of rain for healthier plants, lawns, and vegetable beds. Main features Two measurement options: 7 cm and 17 cm collection cups. 7 cm cup minimum calibration: 0.125 cm; 17 cm cup minimum calibration: 0.2 cm. Total height: 50 cm — tall enough to collect accurate samples above low vegetation. Construction: thick glass collection tube with a removable metal spiral holder for stable positioning and easy cleaning. Installation hardware: comes with durable metal stakes for firm ground mounting. Temperature tolerance: -4°F (-20°C) to 212°F (100°C), suitable for a wide range of climates and seasonal conditions. How it solves problems Prevents overwatering: precise readings let you skip unnecessary irrigation after rainfall, protecting roots and reducing disease risk. Prevents drought stress: know exactly when rainfall is insufficient so you can water at the right time and quantity. Reduces water waste: measure rather than guess—apply only the water your garden actually needs. Practical uses and applications Home gardens and lawns: monitor weekly rainfall to adjust sprinkler schedules and keep turf healthy. Vegetable beds and raised planters: verify rainfall after storms to decide whether supplemental watering is needed. Balconies, greenhouses, or small allotments: place the gauge where it will collect representative rainfall for the plants you manage. Installation and care Push the supplied metal stakes into firm ground and mount the rain gauge in the metal spiral holder. The spiral is removable for cleaning or storage. Clean the thick glass tube periodically with mild soap and water; replace in holder once dry. Suitable for year-round use within the stated temperature range.
