Soil test tip....

I found this little tip in various places on the net, including The Dollar Stretcher.com.

"Test the soil by putting a drop of vinegar in a teaspoon or so. If it fizzes, it's too alkaline. Then test it by putting in baking soda mixed with a little water. If it fizzes, it's too acidic."

As we are beginning to feel Spring-ish, I thought this might come in handy!
