Here are two ways that you can test your soil: 1  Use a do-it-yourself kit: This basic pH test measures your soilâs acidity and alkalinity and sometimes major nutrient content. Buy a kit at a nursery, follow the instructions, and voilÃ  â you know your soilâs pH. However, the test gives you only a rough picture of the pH and nutrient levels in your soil.
Your soil is acidic if the pH is lower than 7, a neutral soil has a pH of 7. If your soil has a pH above 7 it is basic or alkaline. Follow the test recommendations concerning adjustment of pH. If your soil is alkaline you can add sulfur to lower the pH. You should add lime if your soil is too acidic. Add lime only as recommended by your soil test results.
