Strawberries prefer a pH of 5.3 to 6 - as planting soil goes, that's quite acidic.
The biome that has the most acidic soil is the temperate rainforests.
Lime will change the PH of the soil. Evergreens like a acid soil and lime will add to much alkaline.
Mosses tend to grow best in areas with lots of shade, although different species can tolerate different amounts of sunlight. They tend to prefer poorly-irrigated, poorly-drained, acidic soil.
First answer: by its shape Second answer: Beneficial soil organisms promote the decay of dead vegetable matter and animal matter, breaking them down to minerals that plants need to grow. Thus beneficial soil organisms make soil more fertile. Harmful soil organisms have the opposite effect, however, producing a stench in wet soils without proper drainage and making them acidic and unfertile.
They are not living nor they are dead the are just matter they do not have feelings but if you do put a strawberry into a pot of soil the seeds will start to sprout with in weeks my favourite fruit is a strawberry:D
Acidic Soil has a low pH . Remember the pH scale. 1 ( very acidic) ,, to 7 (neutral) ,, to 14 (very alkaline). Farmers often put lime on acidic soil in order to remove the acidity. As per the equation. 2H^+(aq) + Ca(OH)2(s) = Ca^(2+)(aq) + 2H2O(l) It should be noted that plants prefer acidic conditions, and other prefer more neutral/alkaline conditions.
Vegetable plants are plants where the soil pH is a measurement of how alkaline or acidic the soil is. A reading of less than 7 represents acidic soil and greater than 7 is alkaline. Most vegetables grow well in soil with a pH of 6.5. However, some crops prefer a more acidic environment. See the related link for further information.

PH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of the soil. Plants have a preferred range that varies from plant to plant: some prefer alkaline soils, some acidic. If an alkaline-loving plant is grown in acidic soil, it will not grow as well as it would in alkaline soil. Knowing the pH of the soil allows farmers to use chemicals to alter the pH and establish the best growing environment for their crops.
wheat grows best is alkaline soil
Add lime
The acidity of the soil. Some plants like more acidic soil while others prefer more alkaline. By measuring the pH, you are able to adjust the soil's acidity accordingly.
To neutralise a sample of soil, you must determine the pH of the soil sample either acidic or alkaline. Add lime (e.g. Limestone) to acidic soil to neutralise it. And add sulphur to alkaline soil which will neutralise it.
Some groups of plants e.g. most Rhododendrons and Heathers will not tolerate an alkaline soil. Others like Prunus Berberis Acer and Buddleia will tolerate and flourish in an alkaline soil within limits. Neutral soil is PH7.5 ,acid soil is below that and alkaline soil is above it. most plants prefer pH of 5.5-6.5 as this slighly acidic soil is best for nutrient absurbtion.
add sulpher or a acidic fertalizers
Clay soils may be acidic, basic or neutral. Clay itself does not dictate the pH of the soil.
It depends on the plant. They all have their own preferences. To expand on the above, most common vegetable plants prefer a slightly acidic soil, between pH 6 and pH 7.
