Effect of water pH on acidic soil?

Published on by

Hello everyone, we know that most of the plants grow best in soil near neutral pH, but some plants prefer slightly acidic and others slightly alkaline soil. In my area the soil is slightly acidic. I was thinking what happens to the pH of water that comes in contact with this acidic soil? Any one has any experience in dealing conditions like this? Do we need to worry about the irrigation patters or irrigation methods etc?

  1. There is a company called Eco Flow Labs, LLC (www.Eco-Flolabs.com). Cracked the code on resonant field technology. Two things, this unit will break minerals down to their singular molecular state, requires no salts, no chemicals, no filters, and no maintenance. It has an estimated 100 plus year life. It also comes with a no questions asked five year replacement warranty. Mineral uptake to plants is enhanced because of the molecular breakdown, and it will balance the PH of the water in doing so. These are already used on industrial equipment to stop calcification from occurring, and are used in restaurants like Subway to stop black mold from growing in their ice machines.

  2. plants need water for photosynthesis and general survival, and they get that water from the soil in which they grow. If the soil changes the pH of the water, then it will affect the pH of the water available to the plant. The plant brings that water into its cells, the pH of the water can affect the pH balance of the cells. So the pH of the water is just as important as the pH of the soil! Soil ph will not affect the irrigation methods or scheduling at all. you will get good information about the soil Ph http://www.plantea.com/pH.htm here and can see some remedies also.
