Much appreciated! :)

When I first took the plot a couple of years ago, there was a notice tied to the gates advertising a man who would deliver, but I didn't know how much use it would have been and the notice has long since disintegrated.

Is the manure he delivers well rotted or does it need leaving a season or more?
