I have one now and it always reads the same, I had one I got from amazon and didn’t feel like it was correct either. They both pretty much showed 7 or very close even when I never ph my water over 6.4 and started phing at 5.8 to try and lower soil ph.

You either have trust issues or bad luck with gear. What are the brands, and have you calibrated them?
Water pH in does not always equal runoff pH in soil.C'mon, mule!

If you need to test the pH in soil then an Apera PH60 with soil probe, which is costly but will give you the most accurate reading. I think they call the probe a spear or something like that.Flower Room: 11' x 7' x 7.5'H, 480w AC, 13gal/day dehumidifier, 1.5gal ultrasonic humidifier, 60gal (27gal usable) nute tank, 16" pedestal fan & 18" wall fan. Lighting and climate automated. Hand watering.

I use the above mentioned apera ph60. I make a slurry with a soil sample using distilled water. Dip probe into the mud and see what it reads. You can check tds (ppm/ec) also to make an assumption on how much food is left for the plants.Comment

Another vote on Apera. I did a comparison of one and a cheap Amazon one here a few years back. Can't find the link now for some reason.keeping it green with the soil thing
