Does anyone have any guidance on moisture meter best practices? I often have pots that are dry on top and down the sides, but when I test near the rootball it shows "wet". I'm perpetually worried about root rot so usually wait until the moisture meter reads dry (or very close to) in multiple places in the pot. I usually end up having to snooze Planta watering reminders multiple times. Most of my plants are doing well, but a couple are showing signs that they might like a little more water (crispy tips) and I'm wondering if I should be using the moisture meter differently? FWIW, most of my soils are potting mix with extra drainage. They all have drainage holes and the majority are terracotta. I would say a couple are probably a bit too big for the plant which is obviously not great for holding that extra moisture. Pic of my newest addition!

    I wouldn't rely completely on a moisture meter. They can be very inaccurate. I used one on a plant that was completely dry, and it said it was wet.
