Lab seems to have lost my soil samples, need to crack on with work and need to know pH of block of land. Have a calibrated optical pH meter for checking water for the chooks and was thinking is it just a matter of mixing some soil samples with distilled water and checking for a simple farmgate pH test? Is this a thing? if so what amounts of water etc do I use?

Meter tend to be unreliable - simple kits from garden centres are the real thing in miniature and good enough for most practical purposes - £2-£3 each generally.
