Some people will buy products they do not understand and not buy books that will give them understanding. I'm using "mulch" to help the soil retain water/moisture content. The link you provided for mulch is somewhat different in that regard. Specifics: 2 pecan (different species) saplings. Planted in what is primarily caliche and fractured limestone. Alfalfa hay spread in a 2' radius around saplings, approximately 4" deep, matted thickly together. Long-term weather conditions: exceptional drought, no rain to speak of for many months, 100F plus temp highs for almost 2 months now for 50% of the time. Goal: acclimatize the trees to the rough soil conditions, and, add and help maintain adequate soil moisture. Some leaves were showing signs of lack of water, so, I add 5 gallons each sapling per 2 weeks. They have improved since I started doing things this way. Maybe the hurricane will bless use with some rain, Jang? -- Dave |
