Who owns the faith? Are you trying to persecute me?
Fri May 4, 2012 11:09 AM EDT

Hey Gardeners, What is your soil pH?
Wed Apr 25, 2012 5:06 PM EDT
Soil pH, what is it? It is a measure of your soils acidity or akalinity and this is very important for your plants, all of them. In the old days farmers tasted the soil to find out if it was sour, bitter or sweet. If it was sour it was too acidic, if it was bitter it was too akal …
