Testing them indoors for about a month went very well. I guess it's time to get the epoxy out and waterproof the electronics so they can be moved outside.For the signal output, half the input voltage (before any voltage drop for wiring) is an excellent saturation level for plants in potting soil. So it seems like they put some effort into the design.

A great product that works as it should. I'm using as part of a DIY automated garden watering system controlled by an Arduino.Only downside is the board and parts are not coated to make it waterproof. I solved that by coating the board and connector with several coats of PCB confirmal coating.Recommend.

Purchased these to build some soil sensors. All 5 worked just fine. They do need to be calibrated (using dry air and a cup of water) or there is some inter-sensor variability. Overall very effective for a good price. A version with some waterproofing/conformal coating of the circuitry would be nice. I would have paid a few bucks more for that option.

These work as expected. Some modules of this design are known to have a manufacturing defect, but these were all fine (well, other than the silkscreen spelling of "Capacitive").

These sensors work as intended. They're perfect for automated irrigation systems

These are a pretty cool and fun addition to the Arduino sensor kits. These are super easy to use and program for monitoring your garden or potted plants. I plan I making a garden monitoring system with these, but I have been too caught up with farm work to get around to it yet, but these are a very simple concept that will be very easy to work with once I get the free time.
