Soil pH Testing
Soil pH testing involves measuring the acidity or alkalinity levels of soil. This is important for determining the soil's ability to support plant growth. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with values below 7 indicating acidity and values above 7 indicating alkalinity. The optimal pH level for most plants is between 6 and 7. Soil pH testing helps gardeners and farmers make informed decisions about the types of plants to grow and the necessary amendments to improve soil quality.
