Why You'll Love the Light & Moisture Meter

  • Two readings, one simple tool: measures both soil moisture and light intensity with a single device, no batteries or calibration required.
  • An easy-to-read dial: clearly marked zones show moisture from dry to wet and light from low to high, so you always know what your tree needs.
  • Accurate at the root zone: its responsive sensor reads moisture where it matters most, right at the roots, helping you avoid both over- and under-watering.


A Living Memorial That Grows With You

Finding a meaningful way to honor someone you love can feel overwhelming. A Treebute tree offers something different, a living expression of love that grows stronger each year. It gives your hands something to do and your heart something to hold.

The act of planting creates meaning. The growth creates hope. The tree creates a place to remember.

What Comes With Your Light & Moisture Meter

  • One Luster Leaf RapidTest® 1830 Moisture & Light Meter and an instruction manual for quick, easy use.

Nurturing Your Memorial Tribute

Even if you're new to plant care, the Light & Moisture Meter makes it simple to give your tree exactly what it needs.

  • Checking moisture: insert the probe into the soil near the root zone and read the dial, which shows a clear range from dry to wet.

  • Checking light: hold the meter where your tree is planted to see whether it's receiving low, medium, or high light, helpful for finding the right spot indoors or out.

  • When to check: a quick reading every few days helps you catch watering issues early, especially useful during the first season while your tree is establishing.

No batteries, no setup, just insert the probes and read the results. It's a simple habit that helps your tribute settle in and thrive.

Optional: Plant with Cremation Ashes - The Treebute® Difference

For those wishing to incorporate cremation ashes, your kit includes the option to add our Treebute® organic soil blend. This specially formulated mixture creates a safe, nurturing foundation for your tree - transforming ashes into living growth.

Your tree is meaningful with or without ashes - this is simply another way to honor someone you love.

What if they're not ready to plant right away?

The kit includes simple instructions to care for your tree until planting time. Many customers plant on a significant date, a birthday, an anniversary, or another day that feels right.

What's included with the Light & Moisture Meter?

One Luster Leaf RapidTest® 1830 Moisture & Light Meter and an instruction manual for quick, easy use.

Does it need batteries?

No. The meter works without batteries or calibration, simply insert the probes and read the dial.

How often should I check my tree with it?

Checking every few days, especially during the first growing season, helps you catch watering issues early and understand your tree's light needs.

Can I use this with any Treebute tree?

Yes. It works well with any memorial tree, indoors or outdoors, in a container or planted in the ground.

What if I'm not ready to plant yet?

That's completely understandable. You can use the meter to help choose the best future planting spot for your tree, checking light levels in different areas of your home or yard ahead of time.

Can I plant ashes without any special soil treatment?

We strongly advise against it and doing so will void the Warranty. Planting cremation ashes directly with a tree, without proper treatment, can stress or even kill the plant. The high sodium and pH levels create conditions that are hostile to root development. If you want your memorial tree to thrive for years to come, using the Treebute Organic Soil Blend is essential when incorporating ashes.

What makes Treebute different from other memorial tree options?

Treebute is designed to be planted at home, in your own yard, patio, or indoor space. Unlike distant memorial forests where a tree is planted somewhere you may never visit, a Treebute grows right where you can see it. It becomes a gentle, living presence in your daily life.

Every kit includes a healthy tree of your choice, clear planting and care instructions, and the option to add scientifically formulated soil for safe ash incorporation. And our team understands that every memorial is deeply personal.

How is this different from having a tree planted in a forest?

Forest donation programs plant something far away and send a card. A Treebute Kit delivers a real, living plant to your door, or to your recipient's door, so it can be planted and tended at home and seen every day. It becomes part of daily life, not a distant certificate.
