FAQ About Indoor Plant Water pH Regulation
What is pH and why is it important for indoor plants?
The pH level is a measure of how acidic or alkaline a substance is on a scale of 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. For indoor plants, the pH level of the water used for irrigation is crucial because it affects the availability of essential nutrients in the soil. Most indoor plants prefer a slightly acidic environment, with a pH range of 6.0 to 7.0. This range ensures that nutrients in the soil are soluble and can be absorbed by plant roots efficiently.
