I just received my soil test. It indicated a ph of 7.6. When I called
the company that did the test, they said that 7.6 was not a problem. Other
tests was about normal. The organic mater was 5.4. The reason I ordered
the test that nothing grows very well. What is your thought on this?

Thanks

Is the 5.4 a percentage? If so, add compost to your soil. It will
help neutralize the slightly alkaline condition you have too. I would
not try to adjust the pH, but that depends on what you are trying to
grow.
