What To Do With Pine Needles. Pine needles are a scourge to many gardeners. While leaves that have fallen from trees can be easily raked up, blown away, or crushed underfoot, pine needles lie in ever-growing mats on the ground and are more difficult to remove.
According to University of Minnesota, pine trees should be given a complete fertilizer with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. The nitrogen content should be slightly higher than phosphorus and potassium levels; 10-8-6 is generally recommended for pine trees and shrubs.The first number in the analysis is nitrogen, the second is phosphorus and the last number is potassium.owever, general directions for manure are to spread it on the soil around the pine moving outward to the treeâs drip line. Incorporate the manure into the soil with a garden fork and dampen the area with a water hose.
