Size of hole for a fruit tree? Small or large?
I have already asked this question on alt.agriculture.fruit and have
received strongly conflicting advice. I thought I would ask this group the
same question: what size hole do I need to dig for a fruit tree?
The two schools are: First: very small, just the size of the root ball, and
"make them work for it". School number two says: very large with lots of
amendments. The proponents of school number two say that those in favor of
small holes use lots of agressive fertilizers and that is why the holes may
be made small. What is the opinion of the eco-sensitive folks? A large hole
seems right to me.
