A rain gauge or pluviometer is the perfect tool for any gardener or weather enthusiast. Made of sturdy Plexiglas and aluminum, it is durable and built to last. The rain gauge can be fixed to the wall, a wooden stick, or inserted into the ground making it easy to install in any location.

The pluviometer features an accurate scale that allows you to easily see how much rain has fallen. The scale is clearly marked in milliliters, so you can accurately measure the amount of rainfall. The rain gauge has a capacity of 160 ml, so it can measure a significant amount of rainfall. If the pluviometer indicates that 1 mm of rainwater has fallen, it basically means that 1 liter of water has fallen on an area of 1 square meter.

Measuring the amount of rainwater can help you better care for your vegetable garden. A good rule of thumb is to water your vegetable garden deeply and thoroughly once a week unless there has been significant rainfall. You can also check the moisture level of the soil. If the soil is dry at around 5 cm deep, it’s time to water your garden. Avoid underwatering when plants give fruits, as this can cause plants to become stressed and may result in reduced yields.

The rainwater meter measures 30.5 x Ø 4 cm, making it the perfect size for any garden or outdoor space. Its compact design means it won’t take up much space, but it is still large enough to be easily readable. Looking for a smaller version? Perhaps our 35 mL version is what you are looking for.
