Shade tree help in clay soil
We have heavy clay soil on our farm here in central Texas. I have a few red oaks I planted 10 years ago that are just now getting to a decent size.
I would like to plant several more trees around our place such as live oak and/or burr oak and was wandering if there is anything I can do to stimulate growth. Such as fertilzers etc.
Thanks

Re: Shade tree help in clay soil
I am not a tree expert but just in general some compost should help give nutrients and improve the soil. You might look into adding some azomite also.

Re: Shade tree help in clay soil
I suggest contacting a local arborist or the county Extension service, for the information you seek is so area specific, and there are so many variables involved.

There are certain pursuits which, if not wholly poetic and true, do at least suggest a nobler and finer relation to nature than we know. The keeping of bees, for instance. ~ Henry David Thoreau
