3. INSERT PINS: With the cap removed, insert two metal pins into the cannabis flower you want
to test. Push the pins gently but firmly into the bud, ensuring they penetrate to a sufficient
depth to provide an accurate reading. Try to insert the pins in different locations on the bud to
get a representative measurement.
Once the pins are inserted, give the meter a moment to stabilize and take a reading.
4. HIGH MOISTURE READINGS: If the material has a moisture level between 16% and 35%, one
of the LEDs will light up. The number at its right indicates the moisture level in % moisture
content.
If the material’s moisture level is higher than 35%, the bottom (35%) LED will light up. This
indicates that the material’s moisture level is beyond the range of the TMM. If the material’s
moisture level is lower than 16%, no LED will light.
LOW MOISTURE READINGS: To determine whether the material’s moisture level is lower than
16%, slide the Power/Scale switch on the back of the meter to the LOW position. If one LED
lights up, the number at its left indicates the moisture level in % moisture. If no LED lights, the
material’s moisture level is less than 7% and beyond the measurement range of the TMM.
5. REPEAT AS NECESSARY: If you're testing multiple buds or different parts of the same bud,
repeat the process. Ensure you're getting consistent readings across all samples.
MEASUREMENT TIPS
Remember, while a moisture meter can provide valuable information, it's just one tool in the process
of monitoring and managing cannabis flower quality. Use it in conjunction with other methods such as
visual inspection and tactile assessment to ensure optimal results.
● Never use force to drive the pins into a hard surface.
● When measuring the moisture level of soil, surface readings will be lower than readings with
the test pins deep in the soil.
● Conductive or metallic objects will always light the lowest LED on the bar graph, regardless of
the selected scale.
