If this happens, plant leaves will turn light yellow. This discoloration can be corrected by light application of nitrogen during the growing season in addition to regular fertilization. Peanut hulls can be bought in some areas of the state, and they may be used. However, they should be composted or treated to reduce the possibility of adding nematodes to your soil. Check with your county Extension office to find out how to treat peanut hulls.
Peat moss is best to use, followed by pine bark, leaf mold, sawdust, and peanut hulls.
