Under the leaf canopy on the 1789 plant. Tried something different this year. I added a couple of inches of birch leaves as the main and secondaries advanced outward. This has helped hold in the ground heat since my drip system uses hot water around 100 degrees ( remember this is Alaska ), cuts down on weeds and helps retain moisture and helps slowly desperse additives that are hand sprayed on as well. Has worked out very well so far, soil temperature is at 74 degrees at 6 inch depth currently.
