Can I use my extech pH60 meter to measure soil pH if so how?
I included a link to the meter.


[Extech pH 60](http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/B0012W4HW2)




Take a soil sample and mix it with distilled water. The most common ratio used for soil-water pH is 1:1 soil:water.
Stir the soil and solution and wait 15 minutes to 1 hour to set the slurry.
Measure the pH (check the temperature first).

Here's a great video showing how to do this
In the video below it says to do 1:2 (1 part soil 2 parts distilled water) <https://youtu.be/int0FevLw8I>
