What to add under trees in May

For spring feeding of young apple trees, a combination of nitroammophoska and wood ash is suitable.

As for ash, 200 grams will be enough for each young seedling.

The same composition of fertilizer is recommended for adult trees, only the ratio will be different. Adult apple trees require 40 grams of nitroammophoska and 300 grams of wood ash.
