I have been advised only to dress the soil with bonemeal at planting

I am sure next year you will be eating some rhubarb, and you have a good
variety.
Know what you mean about chicken pellets, but they work nicely despite the
pong.

Yes, Baz, I know it's a good variety. My father used to get sticks 3'
long! As to the chicken poo, I don't mind the smell at all ... alas, my
neighbours don't feel the same way. Won't stop me though. Heh heh :~}

Thanks again for all your good advice.
