    Question Fertilizer

    How often should you fertilize mature fruit bearing trees so that they would continue to bear more fruits every season? What type of fertilizer should be used?

    get a soil test done to tell you what needs to be put into the soil

    if you dont want to (can be expensive and time consuming) put a load of manure down, anything you can get but go with the normal rates, (lots of cow, a sprinkling of chicken that sort of thing) just leave it on top and the bugs will take it down

    Not good for land.

    Fertilizers are good for the the crops but not good for the land so you must thing before you use it . as it can damage your land in the long run.

    I would use manure or compost instead of fertilizer. You get the same effect but it's better for the Earth. I would do it once a year as part of your spring work.

    Yes, it's better to go natural. We live in countries so I think there are plenty of materials available to make organic fertilizer. You can even use cow urine to fertilize your plants and trees.
