Would anyone know what solution they use in those bottles they sell to test soil PH?

Would like to avoid having to purchase kits all the time.

We have an "Extension Service" in each county in Florida that is an extension of the ag college, University of Florida, and if you take a sample of the soil to them they will test it for you at no charge.
The cheapest kit I know that you can buy is one to test the ph in your pool.
Good luck.

Thanks for the tip Helen!

So, you're saying I can use the pool type PH test for soil as well?

I did it a number of years ago after I was told on the phone by someone from the extension service that ph was ph.
