Description

Small bug when using the RAK12035 soil moisture sensors if they are not precalibrated. The code that is there was not doing the job, so I fixed it..

Relevant log output

code is already modified.. before a sensor that was not precalibrated would result in a dry = 0, wet = 0 calibration

(not sure why my sensor is reading temp in Celsius atm.. not too worried about it.)
