pH is a measurement of how acidic or how basic (alkaline) a substance is. When you test pH, you’re measuring the amount of hydrogen atoms that carry a positive charge.

The higher the concentration of hydrogen ions, the more acidic the sample is. The lower the concentration of hydrogen ions, the more basic a sample is.

Gather some soil from the test area.
Take the homogeneous sample and add equal parts of soil and distilled or deionized (DI) water in a 1:1 ratio. So, for 25 grams of soil you would add 25 mL of water.
Stir the sample for 5 seconds.
Let it sit for 15 minutes.
Start stirring the sample again after 15 minutes, and take your measurement.
