I've just found a source for free composted horse manure, there is a
horse farm about 1/2 mile from me that gives it away. They have a big
compost pile, you just have to drive up with some containers and take as
much as you want.
I have a few questions about it's usage.
1) Is it good for everything or should I just put it on some crops?
If crop established, side dress and cover it with mulch.
If it is fresh, don't eat crops for at least 3 month.
If crops not established, lasagna garden. Spread amendments. Spread
manure. Cover with newspaper. Cover with mulch. Hose it down. Wait 2
weeks, and plant.
grow strawberries, blueberries, tomatoes, carrots, parsnips, cucumbers,
peas, broccoli, spinach and cord.
2) Should I work it into the soil as a soil conditioner?
3) Can I use it as a mulch?
4) How much is too much?
20 lbs/100 sq. ft., or when your plants die. Whichever comes first ;O)
Don't pass go . Get it.
Spread around in you leisure .
Consider a visit to your local barber and see if all that ugly nasty
cut hair can be taken. N2

You the same guy with seed info clueless on establishing life force?
Seems weird that you do not know of life.
