What is response time for temperature probe?

About 5-10 seconds. The sensor inside is fast but the metal probe must have time to change temp. Similar style kitchen thermometers advertise 6 seconds, but that is specific to the conductivity and thermal capacity of meat and typical difference between a starting room temp(70f?) and typical 160f food. I would expect still air to take much longer and flowing air in the middle. Flowing low viscosity liquid may be a bit faster. Also do you need to wait for those last few degrees or just get a ballpark reading.

Has anyone used this to measure lawn soil temp for landscaping?

It's a Klein and it's a thermometer! I don't think many people will take an expensive unit like this and use it to measure 'lawn soil temp'! Dude, use your wife's turkey thermometer for that since it's not really a big deal!

Is there any reason to not use this product for culinary? It seems targeted to construction, etc....but looks like it would be great for cooking/bakin

I use the probe all the time when cooking. It's also great for measuring the outlet temperature of your house or car air conditioner system.

Does this thermometer come with a calibration certificate?

Regarding using boiling water to calibrate -water does boil at 212 F / 100 C -AT SEA LEVEL. If you live at altitude, water will boil at a lower temperature thus a lot of cooking instructions will have "high altitude" instructions.
