  2. Soil pH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_pH

    While both very low and very high pH values are detrimental to plant growth, there is an increasing trend of plant biodiversity along the range from extremely acidic (pH 3.5) to strongly alkaline (pH 9) soils, i.e. there are more calcicole than calcifuge species, at least in terrestrial environments.

  3. Acid phosphatase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_phosphatase

    Reference ranges for blood tests, showing acid phosphatase in red at left. Acid phosphatase catalyzes the following reaction at an optimal acidic pH (below 7): a phosphate monoester + H 2 O = an alcohol + phosphate. Phosphatase enzymes are also used by soil microorganisms to access organically bound phosphate nutrients.

  4. Elevated alkaline phosphatase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevated_alkaline_phosphatase

    Damage to these tissues causes the release of ALP into the bloodstream. Elevated levels can be detected through a blood test. Elevated alkaline phosphate is associated with certain medical conditions [3] or syndromes (e.g., hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome, HPMRS). It serves as a significant indicator for certain medical ...

  5. For healthy plants, test your garden's soil for pH level - AOL

    Every plant requires a specific soil pH range within which it can best absorb essential nutrients. ... carnations require a pH range of 6.7-6.9; turfgrasses, 6.3-6.8; tomatoes, 6.2-6.8 ...

  6. pH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH

    Acidosis, defined by blood pH below 7.35, is the most common disorder of acid–base homeostasis and occurs when there is an excess of acid in the body. In contrast, alkalosis is characterized by excessively high blood pH. Blood pH is usually slightly basic, with a pH of 7.365, referred to as physiological pH in biology and medicine.

  7. Phosphorus deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_deficiency

    Facilitation of usable phosphorus in soil can be optimized by maintaining soil within a specified pH range. Soil acidity, measured on the pH scale, partly dictates what chemical arrangements that phosphorus forms. Between pH 6 and 7, phosphorus makes the fewest bonds which render the nutrient unusable to plants. At this range of acidity the ...

    Lowering this pH with a sulfur fertilizer, the nutrients become unlocked. A pH close to 6.5 is recommended for vegetable gardens. A soil test can relay that information, and your local Extension ...

  9. Iron deficiency (plant disorder) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_deficiency_(plant...

    If iron deficit chlorosis is suspected then check the pH of the soil with an appropriate test kit or instrument. Take a soil sample at surface and at depth. If the pH is over seven then consider soil remediation that will lower the pH toward the 6.5 - 7 range. Remediation includes: i) adding compost, manure, peat or similar organic matter ...
