OverviewExcerpt from Fertilizing Peaches: Potash in Its Relation to Peach Growing Thus it appears that the trees make a considerable de mand on the three essential elements of plant food which the farmer is ordinarily called upon to supply to his soil. Of course, it is understood by the orchardist that it takes something like fourteen elements to supply the needs of his trees, but ordinarily, with the exception of nitrogen, phos phoric acid, and potash, and sometimes lime, all of the other ten or eleven are found in the soil in sufficient abundance to be disregarded from a practical point of view. The analy ses quoted above show that peaches require a much larger per cent of potash for their perfection than is usually considered necessary, and while the phosphoric acid is also shown to be essential, the smaller amount required leads us to conclude that the soil will more often supply this mineral constituent in sufficient quantities than it will the potash.
