Horse Manure
"Kate Morgan" wrote in message ... It's more important to rot down cow and chicken manure, AIUI but I think the point of leaving horse manure in a heap is to allow weed seeds to be washed out by the rain or to be taken out by the proud owner of the manure heap. I think the horse's alimentary canal does a good job of preparing the manure for use by the gardener. I am not proud of my muck heap I wish some one would take it away. In the old days we were allowed to burn them but not any more, pity that, it smells rather nice :-) Whereabouts are you, just in case I happen to be passing with an empty sack? -- Alan Reply to alan (dot) holmes27 (at) virgin (dot) net kate |
