Analog pH Meter Application

I recently bought an analog pH meter and I was wondering if it can be used for soil analysis. I'm planning to use it to measure the pH values of soil.

Thanks

The PH meter is designed to measure the PH value of liquid solution. If you use it in soil, it may not work with the expected accuracy, it may not work at all.

However you can take some sample of the soil and create water based solution and measure that instead. Automated approach, I imagine, would take a lot more effort.
