For me it’s actually putting a thermometer into the soil. I always just winged it, or assumed that the soil temp was the same as the air temperature.

Rough approximation is : soil temperature equal minimal air temperature.

Yes, for instance, I wait to plant cucumber starts until I have close to 2 weeks straight of 50° minimum temperature.
