thanks for the mid season fertilization info bill. it sounds like this will be a nice side dressing once or twice for some crops but not the alliums, they'll get it once early on and no more. good to know to water it in so i guess i'll sprinkle some at the base of plants when i'm going to water things.

i bought a bag of it and it is in the basement. i cut off the top of the bag and it does smell pretty bad considering it is dehydrated. i folded over the open top on the bag and put the whole thing into a 5 gallon pail and put a lid on it, not tight just covered it. there isn't the slightest smell above the pail but i sure wouldn't want to get it wet! chicken manure is really brutal, i remember where there was a chicken farm back in the early 70's and man oh man it reeked driving past it! cow manure even strong isn't all that bad to me but chicken and pig is wicked bad.
