So my outdoor grow for the season is over and i want to get my manure into the ground now so it has time to saturate in and ph down a lil. Was thinking about changing types of manures for next grow. Does all manure work the same because my feed milll has this mushrooom manure that the say is the "bees knees" and was wondering what others oppions is on this? Thanks in advance.

I find that pure composted cow patties taken off the cow feild works for everything. So take the older ones not the new ones. I sported a plastic carrying tub with carrying handles on both ends and a flat shovel. I tied a rope to one end of the tub so I could sled it through the cow feild. This manure still has to be debuged and further processed.

I really like barnyard horse manure that's been pissed on lol. All it needs is two weeks to cook in a pile and your good. You do want to make sure they aren't currently worming their horses if you like earthworms.
Rabbit manure is good also and ready to use from the get go.

the best way to answer that is this, uncomposted you ONLY want "pebbles" meaning alpaca, llama, rabbit, deer, etc.
Plops need to be composted. Horse, cow, chicken, bird, etc.
Statistically speaking the highest nutrients are found in rabbit, followed by alpaca/llama manures.

Stole this information from http://www.plantea.com/manure.htm. Simple, concise poop on poop. Check it out.
EDIT.. Not quite sure what Diary Cows are, maybe it's lonely cows that have no one to speak to about their inner most hopes, feelings, and disappointments. Must not be California cows.

dairy cows are the black an white (probably more colors and breeds as well) cows used only for milking....

Yep, but I put horse "apples" somewhere in between pebbles and piles and that's why they don't need much composting.

The chart says Diary Cows, NOT Dairy Cows, hence the attempt at bovine humor. It may be hard for the lysdexic to see the difference.

Yep, I'm pretty sure I read it at least 3 times and posted it before I noticed it said 'Diary Cows'. Another one I see all the time is when weather services warn us about 'gutsy' winds instead of gusty winds.Yeah my eyes and mind dont mind the misspelled shit, out of order shit, etc. I just read it all the same. You wrote diary, I read dairy
My guess is there aren't too many 'stoners' in proofreading jobs.
