some bananas dont mind so much a higher acidity, some will not grow at all. like cavendish and gran nain. your kandarin should do fairly well.
but i should add what is below the grass on my property, is not under the grass on yours.
welcome again. congrats on the flower and keep us posted.

Did you mean alkaline? 8 would be alkaline soil. 5 is acidic.
