hey, Shawnee, I'm using one of those little Johnny's soil 
thermometers this year and notice that sunlight affects it (the same 
soil is 50 to 100 degrees, depending on where the sun is). One would 
think that only the probe was picking up heat, but that's not the 
case with these. Do you have a unit that is independent of sunlight 
or do you have an easy work around in seedbeds? -Allan
