Default Compost Usage

(Jay) wrote in message . com...
I have horses and an abundant supply of manure. I hot compost the
manure, turning frequently, until it is no longer heating.

My question is, is this a good source of fertilizer, (nitrogen, et.
al.), for my veggie garden?


yes

I'm fairly new to gardening but my plants
look rather weak and yellow. I started the garden with lots of
compost but didn't add any other fertilizer.


uncomposted manure can be quite strong. some vegetables take it better
than others. what is yellow and what is not? where did you put the
manure?

Is compost enough or
not?


yes, specially if it is manure.
