Message: [QUOTE="frdnicholas, post: 200486, member: 11788"] I am realizing I have to reassess my use of compost. I have added some to my raised beds this December. Our growing season here in Southeast Coastal Georgia begins in February and runs till late November. When would be the next best time to add compost? And, do I just put it on top of the soil, or should it be mixed into the soil even if there are plants growing already? I am receiving some bare root trees from the Arbor Tree foundation, and they were saying not to add compost to the planting spot because it could burn the roots. So, when would or do I add compost to either flowering or fruit trees? I should mention the compost is fully decomposes having been made in my compost tumbler. I would be most grateful for advice from this forum. [/QUOTE]
