Pine Needles ** Was: Anita Has Checked In

[Guest guest]

Howdy Genevive,

 

What are the pine needles for? I have a pine tree in my back yard.

Aside from distilling them .. they are the finest mulch you can use around

Aaleas and Blueberries .. both love highly acidic mulch.

 

I sweep mine up with my tractor hauled Yard Sweeper cause we have a whole

bunch of Azaleas and 6 Blueberry bushes.

 

Y'all keep smiling. :-)

PS: Regarding the below .. I just called a buddy in Conroe, TX .. same

place Anita lives. He still does not have electricty.
