Manure
« on: July 29, 2008, 17:15:04 »
Can i spread manure, the good stuff that comes from a local farm over my plot when there are plants already there. ?

It sounds a strange question but i was told that you should only put down manure on a clear plot.

I have brocolli,pumpkin,marrow and alike spread out over part of my plot and wonder whether i can put the manure round about between the plants

Only use manure that is minimum of 6 months old.   Anything newer will burn your crops.
All you do and all you see is all your life will ever be

please also make sure that your manure is safe, ask about the weed killer
