Dude- thanks for the good advice. So i should have looked into a soil ph kit
From my understanding, depending on the type of pH reader you have, you shouldn't need any sort of soil specific meter. What kind do you have, Fuzz?
you dont need any specific kind of ph kit, the strips are good enough. the drops would have been better, but the strips will work. collect runoff, test with strips. red is acidic blue is basic, green is perfect 7.
