Hey everyone! :)

I have just carried out a Thompson & Morgans PH testing kit on my soil and the result was I have neutral soil.

My question is this.............is that good?

Thanks

Not if you want to grow Blueberries. They need it slightly acid below 7.

Other than that and the odd cabbage, neutral is a fairly good place to be.

Thanks for the replies, I always thought my soil would be too one of the extreams, but I suppose the land my garden is on used to be an old orchard.
