akaline ph, What to do?


Hello, to everyone.  My name is Brad Walters. I live in Greenwood, Indiana.
For the past three months I have read everything I can get my hands on about
raisng giant pumpkins.  I have also been in touch with and received advice
from one of indiana's top growers Joe Miley.  He has been a lot of help as
well as a good source of seeds.
     I have one pressing dilemma at the moment.  I have been trying to adjust
my soil ph since late january.  Fortunately, the weather has been warm enough
to play in the dirt.  My ph is 7.7 .  As soon as I found out it was that high,
I added 1.5 pounds of elemental sulfur per 100 sq. ft.  Recently I had the ph
checked again.  It has not changed.  Should I use different soil ? I have
access to some different top soils which I am having tested now.  I can bring
in new soil by the truckload if necessary.  I only need enough for two plants
since that is all I have room for

                                                         please help,
                                                                            th
e rookie, Brad
