pH Readings

I bought a cheap PH test kit and took some readings in 4 different areas of the allotment
Here are the results:

Asparagus Bed 6.5
Onion Bed 6 - 6.5
Tunnel 7.0
Carrot Bed 6-6.5

According to the booklet with the kit, the pH seems to be OK. Asparagus should be 6 to 8, Onions 6 to 7, Carrots 5.5 to 7. Most veg seem to grow OK in the range 6 to 7.5. If you want a test done on particular bed, let me know
