I got one of these:
http://www.hobby-boards.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=70

With the soil sensor in a glass of water (i.e. as wet as it will get),
I get
current:   -0.436875

http://owfs.org/index.php?page=garden
which should be linked of
http://owfs.org/index.php?page=moisture
if someone can add the link

Both say the current should be 0.30 dry and 1.29 wet, or something close.

I'm kind of worried when I get -0.436875 on mine when it's fully wet.

Also, are any of the many other variables that owfs exposes, like temps,
supposed to be valid/useful?
gargamel:/etc/owfs/bus3/aux/30.131A62120000# grep . type*/temperature
temperature current
typeB/temperature:  7.0278E+32
typeE/temperature:    -1015.99
typeJ/temperature:    -1305.09
typeK/temperature:     -149533
typeN/temperature:    -12683.8
typeR/temperature:-1.58638E+08
typeS/temperature:-2.44158E+07
typeT/temperature:     -109837
temperature:          32
current:   -0.436875

I have owfs running with -F, so 32 (freezing in F) can't be a good temp.

Thanks,
Marc
