Green manures have been used for thousands of years for mainly vegetable crops; it is a way of replenishing organic matter into the soil, especially soils that have been impoverished by chemical fertilization. It is a sustainable enrichment of soil by incorporating un-decomposed green plant material for the benefit of the soil. You dig it in and let the roots, stems, and leaves decay there.

As a general rule, if you are planting trees and shrubs in individual holes, do not add any soil amendments...simply fluff the existing soil.

This allows for an extensive well-prepared root zone in which the plant roots will remain for most of their lives. Related Article Tags: , , , , , , , , , , ,
