The pH is short for (Potential Hydrogen), It is simply a scale to measure acidity or alkalinity of the soil.
Now how does that effect the rate of photosynthesis?
Well, the enzymes present in the plants need an optimum pH to work. If the soil is too acidic or too alkaline enzymes are denatured, bringing a halt on the reactions in plant cells.
Plants usually need a neutral pH as they contain water mostly.

Hope that helps.
thx
