Last year I built up a separate small compost heap in an old bin putting acidic stuff into it such as rhubarb leaves and citrus peel. I took it for granted that it would stay acidic as it decomposed and be good for my blueberries. To my surprise, sticking a ph tester into it today it turned out to be only a little less alkaline than the standard heap.
Did I do something wrong somewhere, or is this normal? Or is my cheap Wilko monitor giving duff data (I did clean the probes before use.)?
