Default raising ph

so i read that western PA has some of the most acidic rain in the country. anyway, i was wondering how i could make the soil more alkaline. because the soil is probably too acidic and acidic soil equals males. can i use a mixture of baking soda and water or maybe sum calcium pills? my plant is about 1 foot high.

To check your soil ph you will need to get one of "those ph tester gizmos". You can get a combo tester that is a soil moisture, darkness, and ph tester all in one for a pretty good price. Check ebay, thats where I got mine.
