Question.......If you water your patch all summer
long with thousands of gallons of water that
has an extremely high or low ph, will this
effect the growth of your pumpkins ?
For example.........assume my soil ph is 6.6
and I start watering from a well that has a
ph of 4.5 or 5.0.......will my garden soil be
effected after months of pouring on this low
ph water ?
Will my soil ph start dropping down in to
that "low zone" where the nutrients in the
soil will not be available to my plants ?
Should the ph of the water that we are all
pouring on our patch be a major concern
to us ?
