Is this acid rain that I am dealing with?

Question

Well, last night it rained and I have a vegetable garden. In the morning when I went to go check up on it, I noticed that it was a bit droopy, with one of the pepper plants completely spread out on the dirt, and I observed to see if it was that the stem was broken, or any other cause. All I know is that the plants are usually very erect after a rain shower. Could this have been acid rain? Also, I noticed a lot of small, dead frogs in my back yard.

Answer 1

Acid rain as strong as lemon juice was recorded at one place I used to work on top of a mountian.   It didn't kill the plants overnight like that.    Probably your moron neighbor spraying weed killer all over his lawn and some drifted over to your garden.

Answer 2

im sure if it was, it would be on the news or something.  Its not like it just happened in your backyard only.

Answer 3

most likely yes.  if you live in a very populated area or at least near a populated area there is bound to be at least a little of acidic rain.

Answer 4

Check out your neighbors' gardens to find a similar pattern.
