- Intervention effect Grass-clipping mulch increased soil potassium relative to all treatments except chipped limbs.
- Intervention effect Pine bark nuggets produced higher foliar iron than pine straw and chipped limbs.
- Intervention effect Leaf mulch produced higher foliar iron than pine straw and chipped limbs.
- Intervention effect Grass clipping mulch produced higher leaf manganese than sod, pine straw, chipped limbs or leaf mulch.
- Mechanism The authors attribute growth differences to factors other than the small nutritional differences.
