Adjusting soil ph after planting

I started my clones in fox farm happy frog potting soil with peat moss and perlite. I recently learned peat is acidic.

I started flowering yesterday, and they've been under 24 hours of light in red solo cups, 6 days in their final home, 2 gallon containers. It's basic potting soil from the nursery with their spagnam peat and perlite.

How do I test soil ph? How do I adjust soil ph after planting? What's Ideal soil ph?

you test ph by watering heavy and testing the runoff water.

ph for soil... fucking google it you lazy fuck, its everywhere.

but a GOOD quality ph pen to adjust your nutrients.

I won't start a new thread since this one exists ... however I have a different question:

Is it bad to use pH down to adjust the water pH prior watering biobizz lightmix soil ? I was told pH down kills microbes and lemon/apple vinegar should be used instead ... however are there microbes in lightmix ?
