Dropping acid in the garden has paid off, I have been acidifying the water with concentrated Phosphoric acid before watering, lowering it from the Ph of ~8.5 out of the tap to ~5.5-6.0... the plants have exploded as a result... 23 tomato plants (~8 different varieties) lots of potatoes (3 different varieties), ~20(havent bothered to count) Pepper plants (6 different varieties), squash, cucumber, beets, salad greens, kale, carrots, radishes, garlic, egyptian walking onion, sweet potatoes (2 different varieties), ~12 pole beans (several varieties) and 1 bush beans, strawberries, lots of herbs and more I am sure I am forgetting...

Spraying with neem oil and soap solution has staved off any pest infestations so far, added millions of beneficial nematodes to hopefully prevent a recurrence of the flea beetles that plagued us last year, regularly checking for the squash vine borer that wiped out our squash last year, and plan to spray the peppers, tomatoes and potatoes with an aspirin solution soon to boost their resistance to pests- supposedly aspirin tricks them into thinking they are under attack by pests and triggers them to boost their natural defenses however the research is FAR from conclusive, so I may try spraying some of the plants with aspirin and see if I can tell a difference- not a scientific study, but the best I have time for...
