Need more information on ph sensors

Hi guys
I want to measure the ph of the soil although the product Gravity: Analog pH Sensor / Meter Kit For Arduino:

is for aqueous solution.Also Analog Spear Tip pH Sensor / Meter Kit:

says it can be used for semi solid but very costly.
I was curious about if there is any other cheaper alternative to measure ph . I also found this :

How ths device is measuring ph at such low price ,is it reliable/accurate?Please guide.
Thanks

pH probes are by nature very delicate, so its a difficult problem to make a robust enough probe - if
you want cheap, I think you have to buy litmus paper and do it by hand.

That 3-way tester doesn't have a pH sensor, so it can't measure pH. It uses different metals in
the probes in an attempt to measure electrochemical potentials, so its likely measuring a proxy for pH,
not pH itself.
