Title: strawberries
Post by: mememe72 on March 10, 2009, 18:00:03
Hi all we have access to both horse and cow manure (both well rotted) and was wondering which would be better for strawberries we are planning on putting the strawberries in raised beds very soon and was not sure which would be better.
Thanks in Advance

Personal opinion - I would not think it makes much difference.  I put manure in thew bottom of my strawberry beds to build up the mass before covering with soil.  Produced loads of tasty fruit.  My beds will be getting moved this year as it is their fourth year in the same place.

If I had the choice I would use cow manure but either will do nicely.
