Subject: [compost_tea] composted cow manure on vegetable beds
Question,
I have come across some composted cow manure - turned with a small bulldo=
zer for about 3 months, hot,and mixed only with a small amount of wood shav=
ings. There is virtually no manure smell nor anaerobic odor to this mix.
I am using this on my roses and other ornamentals, what pathogen risks, i=
f any, do I run by layering it on my vegetable beds - along with my own hom=
e brewed compost and leaves?
