Leaves cannot harm your vegetables in any way though it is very
important about what kind of leaves you are talking about. Walnut, for

tree nearby my garden and I'm seriously considering about relocating the
garden because nothings seems to grow anymore near the walnut tree.

I think you got the wrong thread )

Where is the dissonance?

The original subject was "Leaves, beneficial or not?", and the first
question was:
"I have been scraping up all the leaves in the garden (very large garden,
unbelievable amount of leaves!!) Was wondering if having dumped a load
of them on the veg patch for mixing in with horse manure when they are
rotted down whether this will be beneficial or detrimental to the health
(growth) of veggies next year??"

Did I miss something?
