do all leaves and branches make the soil more acid??
I know that pine needles acidify the soil and that oak leaves also
acidify the soil. But what about all other kinds of leaves and branches? Is it only pine and oak leaves and branches? I would think that all green leaves and branches acidify the soil. I did some searching but found no research that addresses this question. Basically I want to know if all green leaves and branches act to acidify the soil when used as a mulch? I cannot think of any alkali or salts in plant tissue, so that plant leaves and branches are either acid or neutral. Question: how good is newspaper as a acidifer?
