Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this...
I have a
raised bed I want to plant an Asian pear tree in after last frost. It is filled with half composted organic material, and I have been peeing on it a lot.
My wife, who is not a gardener , but does have her mothers Appalachian green thumb, thinks I may be over doing it.
As things warm up, I plan on topping out the pile with top soil and aged manure,planting, and continue to add
urine and veggie scraps down the worm towers I have put in place.
Red wigglers will also be added.
Recent reading has made me think that all this nitrogen will encourage plant growth but discourage fruiting.
So, too much pee/nitrogen for a fruit tree? And if so, what
should I plant instead?
BTW, this is a shaded spot, but I have another (Bartlett) pear doing well nearby, so wasn't too worried about sun...
If the nitrogen isn't going to be a problem, what should I plant underneath the new pear tree?
