It's a hot manure. Break the rules, gardening gets a lot wrong or is to finicky but for a starting idea - "Hot manures are high in nitrogen compounds, which decompose quickly in the compost pile and generate a lot of heat in the process. In fact, traditional hothouses harnessed the energy of rotting manure to grow seedlings and cuttings during winter. Hot manures include chicken, duck, and horse. Cold manures are low in nutrients and release less heat as they break down, posing less risk of burning your plants. Examples are cow, goat, and sheep – ruminant animals that regurgitate and chew cud, extracting most of the nitrogen from their plant-based diet before it comes out the other end. Llama and alpaca aren’t ruminants, but their manure is low enough in nutrients to be considered cold." |
