"They [FloraPulse sensors] are also small, consume very little power, allow for wireless data transmission, and like sap flow sensors are fully automated once installed." (Jenkins, Block, 2024) acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc…

"The sensor works similarly to other tensiometers but in reduced format within xylem tissue – it equilibrates between a sample of interest and an internal volume of liquid water. Setting it up was easy enough, taking only about 15 minutes per tree" -Ruth-Kristina Magh

We lucked out that Beng from @ICT_Int_AU happened to sit down next to us at lunch at the GRC! Had some awesome 1-1 training on how to better use our stem and leaf psychrometers on peanut plants!

"Over the last 10 years, Shackel noted that the FloraPulse sensor, a tensiometer, has been the best tool he’s found to mimic the measurement that the pressure chamber takes on a different scale and is becoming much more popular among tree nut growers." nationalnutgrower.com/article/tools-…
