Manure
« on: September 16, 2010, 17:39 »
Hi All - I'm just starting my second season on my plot and last year was a bit of a rush so this year i'd like some advice on manure.

I've got some horse manure bagged up which i've had about 6 weeks.

I've just started to dig over ready for Autumn/Winter and would like to know when my manure will be ready to go on the plot.

How do i know when i'ts rotted down enough?

It will be rotovated in during the springtime by the way.

Thanks In Adance.

Welcome to the site  :D

Feel free to pop into the welcome forum and tell us a bit more about yourself, and could  you also edit your profile to show your location? Ta  :)

Manure is properly rotted down when it no longer smells of poop and is crumbly in texture.

You should get away with putting it on the plot as it is now if you want.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
