Create a 6 pages page paper that discusses the importance of soil ph. This paper will expansively present the importance of soil Ph and other important factors related to the very same concept will also be presented comprehensively in this paper.

There are several food crops and plants that thrive under either neutral or slightly acidic soil which means that the Ph of the soil must be 7, on the other hand there are a few other plants that thrive under highly acidic conditions, potatoes and strawberries just to name a few. The weathering rate is arguably one of the most important aspects when it comes to deciding hoe acidic the soil is It depends on a factor called mineralogy which means the presence of easily weathered minerals in the soil. There are other important aspects too like the texture of the soil, the presence of moisture in the soil etc.

"A plant's growth is affected to a large degree by the relative concentrations of hydrogen ions (H+) and hydroxyl ions (OH-) in the surrounding soil solution (soil pH).
