Description from the creator

How to Make Acidic Soil. Soil acidity is measured by a pH reading. Most plants grow in relatively neutral soil with a pH between 6 and 7.5, but some plants may perform better in acidic soil. Soil with a pH above 7.0 is considered alkaline, while soils below 7.0 are acidic.
