What happens if the pH is too low

Okay, first thanks god that this isn't my babies! but it is by baby orange tree:cry:
i run a soil analysis about a week ago without checking the pH and the test showed that there was no Fe (iron) left in the soil at all and this matched with the leaves just too fine so i did border with checking the pH anymore and got some Fe-nute from the local garden center. now a week later it is still not doing any better and i checked the pH today:

5.20!!!


so i hope some soda will cure it now but it is looking really shitty by now:(

I wouldn't worry about the Ph green, Use some Seaweed/kelp extract and all your problems will be solved.

you got eyes in your head and learned to read at some point???
i state that the pH is down to less then 5.5!!! it should be around 6.2 to 6.6! those leaves are fucked due to this and thel lack of iron (Fe) and you tell me that i should worry?!:evil: well thank you sir!:roll:

Seaweed/kelp extract will Fix that PH problem... I never worry about PH in potted plants. I do certain things to avoid problems. such as adding buffers.
Seaweed/kelp extract buffers the nitrogen and PH. Coffee grinds will do somthing similar.

Its usually a number of problems.. somthing if affecting the PH, why worry about the PH when you can worry about what is affecting it.
I don't mean to say, " Don't worry man ! everything will be fine" or however you took it.
