CookieCows, you are correct about pH ... I don't know if I would consider you a newbie!
To test pH, I would recommend an inexpensive probe (under $20) that does not require batteries or electric power.
Be sure to take several measurements, all in the root zone of the plant. Here are two examples, sold by reputable dealers in the $5 to $15 range, and very expensively elsewhere.
