21.  5. pH stands for _________________________.  pH level refers to the amount of acid and alkaline contained inside of both the water and the growing medium or soil. If the environment is too acidic, the plant will not attract enough hydrogen, while an environment that is too alkaline will attract too much hydrogen.  pH level refers to the amount of acid and alkaline contained inside of both the water and the growing medium or soil. If the environment is too acidic, the plant will not attract enough hydrogen, while an environment that is too alkaline will attract too much hydrogen.  An environment that continually fluctuates from one extreme on the pH scale to the other is unhealthy for the plant. potential Hydrogen
