What is pH & Why It Matters 🧪

• 📊 pH Explained – A scientific measure of acidity or alkalinity in a solution
• 🔢 pH Scale – Ranges from 1 to 14
  • 1–7 = Acidic
  • 7 = Neutral (pure water)
  • 7–14 = Alkaline
• 🌱 Optimal Range – Keep nutrient solutions between 5.8 and 6.5 for most plants
• ⚠️ Why It’s Critical – Incorrect pH can cause poor nutrient absorption or plant failure
• 🧬 Nutrient Availability – Proper pH ensures effective uptake of key elements like iron, calcium, and magnesium
