My Blueberrys are dying. I have tried everything to lower the soil PH but nothing works. I bought solphur and other things at a few specialized garden stores but my PH tester shows only a minor change, still above 7. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you.

sodium bicarbonate is alkaline. You can get it at any at any food stores "szodabikarbona". Other than that I'm clueless about growing stuff.

Thanks ThorAGENA but when I said I need to lower the PH it means that I want a more acidic soil which is exactly the oposite of what you are suggesting.
On the PH scale PH1 is the most acidic and PH14 is the most alkaline. The soil I have in my garden is about 7.5 (which is neutral) and the bluberries needs less than PH5 and it's a real problem.
But again, thanks for trying.
