Default Freshly manured soil?


Other than potatoes, what can be sown in freshly manured soil?

Almost anything. Even carrots. They may fork a bit, but so what?

Not only that but it will also make the carrots grow lots of fine
hairs and will bring far too much high levels of nitrogen. It is not
recommended to use manure on carrots bed.

Roses?

The young leaves are reported to be edible, and the flowers certainly
are.
