As I mentioned in the "East Facing UK Garden + Clay" thread, I have
grown blueberries on clay pH 6 - 6.5.
Where did find online that clay is always alkaline?

Jeff, I was so surprised to read that designation that I did a search
and found quite a number of sites, starting with E-How, that discussed
the pH of clay soils.
I have learned from this NG discussion that there are "shades of grey"
between acidic and alkaline.
