so i had this pile of manure sitting composting for a few years now. was about 80% horse manure, with some hey and other stuff (and crap like metal and rocks i strained out)
now it's pretty nice rich looking stuff, almost more compost-like than manure-like.
my question; i was going to make some manure tea (for my veggies) but i'm curious if this will be more like a compost tea with an expiry on it instead? (horse manure tea is ok to let sit. not like AACT *correct me if i'm wrong here. that's what i learned years back from mom*)
i'm thinking this likely has microbes that could go bad on me though?
any thoughts? (and how will i know if it was more AACT-like and does go bad? *i've only made AACT in small batches, and never let it go bad/unused)
pcduck? anyone?
thanks for any input
embarrassingly still haven't made that worm bin (though i've had a good excuse) i'll be starting on it today
