Mike,

I would not recommend it because anything planted below the apples trees will compete for nourishment and can possibly bring unwanted pests or disease to your trees.

I'm looking at all that wasted space underneath my newly planted apple orchard (all of six trees) and was thinking of planting some pumpkins underneath to keep the weeds down. Has anyone tried this? If so, how did the apples like it?

Mike
