Managing a young orchard

11 years ago

Just transplanted some 3 year old fruit trees this past spring - apple, peach, plum, pear. What's best to grow on the ground within the orchard? Any particular grass? Legume? Buckwheat? Any danger to the fruit trees of growing a green manure - like buckwheat - and then tilling it into the orchard soil? I was thinking of drilling something this fall. Right now it's fescue with moderate amount of weeds - mowed regularly.
