I till in hundreds of bags of leaves, grass clippings and plant residue in the fall. If leaves are used as a mulch, it will take the better part of summer for them to decompose. Either way you can't go wrong with natures gold. I don't have a clue as to what micro nutrients my soil might need. But after decades of leaves, horse manure,spent crops and cover cropping my garden seems very happy. What we grow is dependent upon plant genetics, weather and the soil. Take care of your dirt and your dirt will take care of you.
