Yes, soil must be de-acidified using ground limestone, not lime from a cement company. Takes longer to work, but safer and better for the soil and the plants. Moss will slowly give up, or could be scraped up, and less will come back once not so acid.

Used the scuffle hoe to get those small weeds uprooted without bending down today prior to our expected rain of 1/3 inch, if it arrives. This hoe has a 5-6' handle so stay standing, and triangle shape so all sides are functional. Maybe the hoe did a hula with its back and forth motion, but I surely did not.
