Here in the northwest it's mostly acidic, but there are exceptions . As the
recent visitors can attest we are green and have numerous fir trees. We also
have lots of clay soil and some areas are stuck with a rock base which is
really challenging. I was surprised to find when we moved in that our soil
is neutral. I haven't rechecked in awhile and we have been adding compost
for 4 years. I suspect it's leaning toward slightly acidic, but still close
to neutral. If the plants are happy I don't re test.
