Please note that "like", "prefer" ... don't mean "require". Most plants will grow in a wide ph range, even if they would choose another if allowed to. As long it's not extreme, most things will grow perfectly.
Ph is not everything. Depending on what is high or low in the soil, limits will move. Also, soil life affects ph and nutrient availability at root level.
I would just try, and only after having problems, start to tweak soil. It's not true that tomatoes and peppers need acid soils. Don't believe everything you read. Some books say we can't grow orange trees, luckily, we never let our trees read those books.
