Title: PH soil tester from Aldi
Post by: Mr Smith on February 23, 2008, 11:06:19
 I was having a look round Aldi's yesterday and they had several gardening items on sale one being a PH soil tester which you stick in the soil  for £3.99, on the back of the card it gave you a listing of what the best soil condisctions are for planting, so for £3.99 I bought one :).
