Hi all, can anyone help me, I have prepared 2 large beds and dug in Lime and Manour at the same time, planted 1 bed of Garlic and half bed of onions, I have just read in a book that you should not put lime and manour together as this causes ammonia, kdo I have to take out all the bulbs or will I get away with it.

Quotewill I get away with it.

That's a bit of a crystal ball job really.

I guess you will have to wait and see what happens because there is no way you can remove the lime/manure from the soil.

I am more optimistic about the fact that it is this time of year you have done it as opposed to doing it in spring/early summer.

In warmer weather there is more chance of the chemical reaction taking place, plus over winter there is a chance it will leech away with the winter weather.

So I guess its fingers crossed and all that, sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I agree with TEE GEE, you say you have dug in the lime so there is every chance that it will be flushed through by the weather.
When you wake up on a morning say "good morning world" and be grateful
