  • Subject: [NAFEX] pine needles
  • Date: Sun, 25 Oct 2009 08:09:42 EDT

 I had the good fortune  ( I think) of getting a truck load of chipped up pine needles and twigs when the electric company trimmed trees around lines around here. They were glad to dump them on my property.  Would they be good mulch for my blueberry plants?    I have trouble keeping the ph low enough even with sphagnum peat moss and adding some sulfur. I have heard that pine needles and oak leaves are somewhat acid, only to hear from other that this is not true.  Can somebody enlighten me?  Jerry in southern Indiana
