Welcome back to HuwsNursery. Today’s video is a look at how does soil pH actually affect plant growth? We know for most vegetables we should aim for a pH of 6-7.5 for the best growth but I wanted to find out why it is so important? From the research I did I found 5 reasons why a certain soil pH is important for the growth of plants. Below are the list of sources I used and thought I would link them if you would like to find out more:
