Will pine trees pollen ruin my crop?

I moved to a new place with two large pine trees in my backyard. My question isnt about the needles that fall since my crop is far enough away from them. It is if the pollen they drop is just as acidic as the needles.....
 
Acidity is good where peppers are concerned. You might want to take a soil pH reading though just to know where you stand in the area. pH can and in many cases is the first domino to a troubled grow.
I generally shoot to keep my soil and additives at 6.4- 7.0 absolute MAX.
