Default RE: Regarding pH levels and liming (for plots)....

Thanks Rebel for the five spade test method.

I am not going to cheap the pH test and risk the $$$ of seed or the possibility of not getting these plots going.

The guy who leases the fields says the soil is really 6.5 all around, but I will check first.

If the soil is 6.5 and we burn the high grasses in our intended areas, what effect will the ash have on the soil? Will it bring the pH up slightly?
