Good article on manures and their use

[hoodat]

I thought this would be an article many gardeners, especially those who keep animals, would be interested in.

PS be sure to check out her catalog. That cuber for making your own starter pots looks very interesting.

Really concise article and a quick read, thanks for sharing! I've got 1 foot deep of poo in the roost pit of my hen house right now from over winter. Too hot to use this year, but next year it will power up the garden. :bun

Thanks for the link - I've got the bedding from the winter goat stall and chicken coop to start composting for next falls garden - so very timely info

Also, the cuber she's got in her catalog I obtained from Johnny's Selected Seeds and have just begun experimenting with it: http://www.betterhensandgardens.com/2011/03/20/soil-blocks-for-starting-transplants/

I'm interested if anyone else here is using it and what there experience has been?
