Taking a pH reading
1. Push the meter probe vertically in the moistened soil to a depth of 4 - 5 inches.
2. Twist the probe between your fingers several times to ensure that wet soil is well distributed over the surface of the probe.
3. If the reading is in the green zones: Remove the probe from the soil and wipe any soil particles from the surface of the probe. Reshine the probe and insert back into the soil at a different point. Twist the probe 2 or 3 times, as before, and wait 60 seconds before taking the final reading.
4. If the reading is in the orange or red zones: Remove the probe from the soil and wipe any soil particles from the surface of the probe. Do not reshine the probe. Insert the probe back into the soil at a different point. Twist the probe 2 or 3 times, as before, and wait 60 seconds before taking the final reading.

I see that the PH values are located above the color scale bar between the black lines. Does this mean that each black vertical line is 4, 5, 6, 7, 8? For example, is the black line between 5 and 6 indicating a PH of 6 and then values between 6 and 7 between the lines (yellow)? My reading sits just slightly below the line between the 6 and 7. What is my actually reading? Approximately. Just below a PH of 6.5 or just below 7? Thanks for your help.
The Luster Leaf Rapitest Mini pH Tester 1815 does not provide an exact measurements if the reading falls between numbers. If closer to the 7 that would be between 6.5 - 7, if it was closer to the 6 that would 6 - 6.5.
