Thanks again, Greg, for you "moral" support ;) with the appropiate setting in weewx.conf for the MQTT extension, the soil moisture values have no digits after the decimal point.
By now, I believe it is a mqtt topic issue. It is a bit odd as I use the same infrastructure for my other weewx station (rv.stegli.de) and, there MQTT just Works fine with the topic RV. For weather.stegli.de the topic is weather ... and that worked well prior adding the WH51s ... Oh well - it keeps me busy 😅 Thanks again!
