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.
#1 â You can test your garden soil pH with vinegar and baking soda. Collect 1 cup of soil from different parts of your garden and put 2 spoonfuls into separate containers. Add 1/2 cup of vinegar to the soil. If it fizzes, you have alkaline soil, with a pH between 7 and 8. If it doesnât fizz after doing the vinegar test, then add distilled water to the other container until 2 teaspoons of soil is muddy. Add 1/2 cup baking soda.
