According to 名媛直播 Heresy, plants add nitrogen to leaves, etc., in early autumn and that means fertilizing with nitrogen at this time.
I am having a hard time adjusting preconceptions, but he has some botany to back up his claims, and he has some decently designed experiments.

I am not a plant physologist. However I find it odd that decidious trees are adding nitrogen to the leafs just before shedding them. Fallen leafs are considered low nitrogen compond for a compost. I would asume he was talking about evergreens and possibly specific species?
The general advice for preparing less hardy trees in my area is adding a shot of PK only fertilizer in athum to prepare for winter.

I keep fertilizing my regular organics until it is too cold for microorganisms to break down the fertillizer.
