Explanation:

A chemical's pH is the measure of its acidity or alkalinity and runs on a scale from 0 (acidic) to 10 (alkaline). Citric acid is below 4.0, meaning that it is acidic and potentially corrosive. The optimal pH for plant growth is between 5.5 and 7.5, so some plants have adapted to survive in different levels. Therefore, applying enough citric acid to a plant's water or soil will create an environment unsuitable for the plant.
