The interesting thing to me about the Cornelle pH chart was that the crops that most closely match the pH of my local soil are also the crops that are grown commercially around here: Wheat, barley, beets, alfalfa.

Silt/clay, high-altitude, super-arid, sun-drenched, irrigated-desert garden. Cold radiant-cooled nights. ~100 frost free days. Grow most of my own locally adapted landrace seed. GDD10C ~1300. Buy my book or subscribe to my newsletter at Lofthouse.com.
