**RAPITEST SOIL CHECK**
The kit tested has one tiny test tube, a powder-containing pill and a colour chart
(a more complex kit is available, shown here). It was fairly easy to use, but there was no way to pinpoint the exact pH number—but then again, all you really need to know is if your soil is too acidic or too alkaline. About $4.
