Default Straw or sawdust - in with horse manure

They would both be a good choice as long as you put it in a pile and left it
for at least a year before putting it on the garden. The straw we get here
and the horse manure will have seeds in them that will come up in your
garden, if you dont give them time to sprout and die before suing them.

There are free supplies of either.
Which would be better for the garden or compost heap?


I think that straw is the best as it rots very quickly. I just throw

mine on the garden for the winter and it takes care of itself
