Your soil ph depends on where you are and for that matter where the soil used to level your lot came from. As to something closer. The cooperative extension has soil sample bags or did. How to take the sample, properly, is important. You mail it in to the lab. You can use one of those probe things they cost about $10. However, readings. They will give you a number. Is it right? Who knows. A proper lab will regularly calibrate the meter against a known value. |
