Any suggestions on how to change soil ph in a very large pot 50+ gallons?

Desertdan please know I wasn't making light of your concern..just a failed stab at morning humor.

Thanks Joker. Great info just what I was looking for. You saved me a ton of research time.

Just like any other medium or container size. With the water you give the plant. Test ph in and out and you'll find your soil ph. If you need it higher water at higher ph. Same if you need to lower it. Just water with lower ph water.

Looking for something other than water ph. when it is 100+ degrees there is a lot of water to change the ph on.

I'm afraid there's no way around the ph "labor" the only other way it can work is if you knew your soil ph and you water ph AND by magic and wonders of destiny when combined they end up in the right ph range. Just like the old school California farmers have done with an acidic soil and well water with ph above 8

Buy a bunch of big BIG bottled water...completely flood it with the water...the ph on the bottled water will be in acceptable range...enough of it and it will have no other option but to work...

I would never ph that much water..I'd buy it
