Thanks Shake, my mistake!!!

Oldmac, SORRY about that, all credit goes to you for chiming in on the pH question, Thanks very much.

OK, here are the PH results:
Well water PH: 7.5
Composted Horse manure w wood shavings that I put on top of the soil, PH: 7.5
Soil: When mixing the 7.5 water with the soil and then testing the 'mud' it comes to 8.2, so I am assuming that my soil PH is at least 8.5 if not a little higher.

Make sense? Can I just keep watering with 6.2 water or would it be better to work some peat moss into the soil?

This plant usually cupps its leaves when temperatures are too high. That plant is probably getting full sun most of the day and is simply too hot for too long. Could probably use more watering to compensate. It could be to much fertilizer, but I doubt it. Most likely it's heat.
