Thank you for that Charles. I am taking delivery of 5 tonnes horse manure this afternoon. Can you advise whether I could just put 2-4 inches of these on top of undug grassy soil and then immediately plant directly into them with potatoes, garlic and onions?
The horse manure is more than a year old. I expect I can plant bare root fruit trees with the manure on top too – or should these be incorporated into the soil?
Many thanks.
