Thanks and yes it does help. Hope others respond to let me know how they used and if it was successful. I really want to use for the hot pepper plants seeing they need nitrogen, bob

Around our backyard farm I have lots of fresh rabit, goat & mini-horse manure. I was wondering if the veggie plants, especially my hot pepper plants, in the garden would get the benefits of nitrogen and other nutrients from fresh manure if once its laid between the rows off veggie's and then...

I thought this would be a great time to show what my apple trees look like today so I took my new camera out and shot a couple of photos of them. Also I wanted to vindicate my son who planted them and told me just now that he did not plant them above the graft point of the tree. I guess when...
