Tire around fig tree polluting soil or plant health
A reader asks if an old tire ring around a fig tree could pollute the soil and affect fruit. An expert says tires degrade very slowly and release materials gradually, unlikely to harm the fruit, while advising on tree health factors such as cold winters, wood age, nitrogen overuse, phosphorus fertility, and irrigation to restore fruiting.
