the post form Frank is dead on!,, however "if" the horse is stabled Vs
pastured,,
the stabled horse manure is less likely too to have "bad" weeds,,
Ed's 2c,,, :-)

Might also depend on the quality of the stabled horse's hay. Most of
our local hay is loaded with Bermudagrass seeds that can be pretty
bothersome in a flowerbed but might be okay on lawns. -Olin

my landlord offered to bring some horse manure so I can use in the
flower
beds and the bare spots in the lawn.
Is it ok to use horse manure instead of cow manure? How should I mix
it
(if
necessary at all) and when should I do it (fall or early spring)?
