If I understand this correctly, then all that N that the Locust trees fix will not be available to the fruit trees until after you cut it down. That's a long time.
Sorry, but now I have more questions.
Are clovers able to supply nitrogen to the soil b/c the individual plants don't live that long ?
Do N producing flowers like Blue False Indigo supply nitrogen even if they come back in the spring ?
The goal is to supply N to the fruit trees for growing purposes.
Thanks. This is very valuable info. I guess I should consider green beans.
