Default leaves under fruit trees

When you say "nutrient Cycle" are you referring to essential elements or
carbohydrate based substances?

Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology.
Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us
that we are not the boss.

g'day esti,

yeh leave 'em there that's what nature does, i'd go a step further and
when the leaves have stopped falling i'd mulch over the top of them
with mulch hay or the like. keep the nutrient cycle going.
