Title: Pig Manure
Post by: droveway on May 09, 2013, 09:02:18 am
Good Morning;
               I am new to pig keeping. Is there any reason not to compost pig poo to use in the Kitchen garden.
                                      Thank  You
                                                       Pete.

All mine either gets spread on the fields or on the veg garden. It's good s**t. :roflanim:

And as before it is good s**t  :roflanim:

Supposed to be the best thing for growing pineapples! It was used exclusively in the old days at the Gardens of Heligan in the pineapple pits as it gave nice steady heat.
