When would you not correct pH even if it was acidic or basic soil?
Some plants require acidic or basic soils to grow well. in such cases, we will not correct the pH level of the soil also plants like hydrangea get their colour from such acidic or basic soil
What does the ashes of plants contain?
Ash supplies potash, an essential plant nutrient. Ash is good for acidic soils not for alkaline soils. Forest soils are usually acidic. Some plants do well in acidic soils others do well in alkaline soils. Figure out what soil you have and what you plan to plant and look up to see what they like.

What types of plant can grow in an acidic condtion?

Does wheat grow in sand?
Wheat doesn't like acidic, sandy or soggy soils. Sandy soils aren't soggy. In fact, they're so well-drained that nutrients tend to leach out. One of the nutrients that sandy soils lose is calcium. Without calcium, soils tend towards acidic pH levels. re:) thanks for ur help but i actually found out that it is approximentally the same sand and dirt to grow sunflower seeds in therefore wheat does grow in sand
Will plants grow with coffee ground mixed with siol?
This depends on the plant, of course. Coffee is acidic, but it can be quite good for plants. If your plants like acidity, coffee can be beneficial.
What flowers grow well in alkaline soil?
Blueberries are the single most important crop in America that depends on acidic soils. These shrubs are derived from wild plants related to the American huckleberry which grow in the acidic soils of our nation's forests. There the accumulated litter of needles and decaying leaves can cause a more neutral soil to become acidic. Soils in areas of high rainfall can be naturally acidic as is the case in the Pacific Northwest, home of the largest blueberry growing region. The links below detail the profile of a modern blueberry hybrid. In addition, an article on how to grow blueberries details more on their soil preferences.
Does acidic soil affect germination of seeds?
Yes. If the soil is too acidic it can kill the seed. It depends on the type of seed and where it was originally meant to grow. Some plants like alkaline soil and some like base soil.
What can you grow in alkaline?
What is the soils pH? It's NPK?(Nitrogen,Phosphorous,potassium) It's CECS(The soils ability to retain it's nutrients.) What kind of soil is it? Sandy,Loamy etc... How well does it drain? What's it's organic matter content? What region do you live in? There are several factors that dictate what you can grow so it isn't an easy answer without more information. I would suggest getting a soil test done. And find these things out. To answer your question a little though, if your soil is alkaline you can use sulfur to lower it's pH and amend the soil over time to plant things that are tolerant to more acidic soils. If your soil is acidic you can use lime to raise it's pH to more tolerable levels for plants that like more neutral or alkaline soils. A comprehensive list of things you can grow depending on the information you collect can be obtained
