How do you test your soil
 
It may be a dumb question but how do you test your soil to make sure the levels are correct and how do you regulate it from there if the levels are to high or to low

Digital pH meters work well for testing soil acidity/alkalinity.

If the plant grows the soil is good.
If the plant doesn't grow add something to the soil
