Yassir, where did you get your numbers from? I have read several
CP books and all agree that acidic soil is best but I've never
seen anyone state specific pH levels. I'm also curious how much
it varies from genus to genus and species to species. If you can
point me to a reference I'd be much obliged.

thanks,
Phil
