Our Soil Testing Kits are a very useful
gardening aid. The most important aspects of testing garden
soil are: understanding the soil type, and its pH value.
Both should be assessed before buying plants. The pH of
a soil refers to its acidity or alkalinity and is a vital
factor in good plant growth. It is easy to measure using
our soil testing kits below, and is usually listed numerically
on a scale of one to 14. Acid soils have a pH of below
seven, neutral is pH7, and alkaline is greater than seven.
For most garden plants a neutral soil is ideal but some,
such as camellias and rhododendrons, should be planted
in an acid soil. Others, including many clematis and lilacs,
prefer alkaline conditions. |
