lucky bluebell.
The older manure will have a higher density of well decayed organic matter and will be brilliant to add organic matter to bluebell’s soil. Wonderful stuff but it will be much lower in nutrients because potash and nitrate will have been leached out. In traditional manure making fresh FYM was covered to prevent loss of nutrients
I think your advice Charles is spot on!
