[QUOTE="Kidds, post: 7836463, member: 5589"] None, or very little. Haven't applied granular N for probably about 15 years. P index says not to apply anyway and K is probably low having not applied any for 10 years. I do apply foliar calcium nitrate for bitterpit control, potassium bicarb for mildew (don't actually know if that makes any difference to K levels) and Epsom salts for Mg deficiency. Trees look healthy to me and crop well, no plans to start buying fert at current prices anyway. The orchard floor is grass with a great deal of clover in it (almost pure clover sometimes). This isn't planted or sown, I just mow the alleyways and that is what you end up with. Always very lush and almost a crop in itself, I assume the clover is providing the N. [/QUOTE]
