acidic soil

Acidic soil is composed of sulfuric and Nitric acids and as Peyote mentioned it all depends . In nature acid rain has a part and the biggest contributor is dead decaying acidic plants .. Now if your asking why most potting soils become acidic its partialy due to the organic material such as Peat but also due to fertilizers , organic or not ..

Dolomite or Hydrated lime is the most common fix ... As well as adjusting water/fert pH
