holity said:Someone told me oak leaves are too acidic to use for mulch. Is that true?
No its not true. Everything that was alive has a ph, that ph changes as decomposition breaks things down. Completely decayed compost in pretty neutral at the end. No matter what the original ph was at the start.
I would not depend on organic additions to change ph of plantings. It never did for all the pine needles and oak leaves I added to my blueberry.
Only Miracid or sulphur changed my ph.
