Test Your Garden Soil Acidity

In gardening guides you see them talking about testing the acidity of your soil so that your plants will do well. So you, then, want to run out and buy a kit to test your soil. Right? Then you have to learn how to use it. Make this simple test for pennies. Take a cup of soil from the area you want to plant in and mix it with two cups of water. Stir in a 1/4 cup of baking soda. If there is an eruption of effervescence you have a very acid soil. If there is very little effervescing your soil has little acidity. You can now treat your soil to raise or lower your soil to the proper level.
