It has now been a week since I began my SRP and I couldn't be happier with the results I am receiving. So far, the acidic plants are not only growing the fastest, but they are looking the healthiest out of the three types of plants.
Regarding my previous problem with the pH of the alkaline soil, it was solved in a day. The next day when I woke up, the pH of the alkaline soil was at a pH of 7.9, making it more alkaline and ready to go. I am facing a slight problem with these plants though. Due to the amount of lime, they are not as healthy as the other plants, and as they are growing the slowest, they are also looking unhealthy. They are still alive though and still standing up so there shouldn't be a problem as I will only be conducting this SRP for another 7 days.
HERE ARE MY MEASUREMENTS OVER THE FIRST 7 DAYS:
