Re: PH of Water


George,
Great Question!
I have often wondered this myself but I do not believe anyone has set up the
type of testing equipment that would be required to properly analyze the
soil over the period of time you mention. I for one would certainly be
interested in knowing? Is Napa still a having a Millenium Party, I guess
Seattle canceled?

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 ?
