Hi guys, I need some rotted stuff for my soil, but I don't wanna pay b q prices. I'm gonna swing by some farms and scoop some fresh stuff for next year, but obviously need lots for this year.

Does anybody know of any place in the Glasgow/surrounding area which does bags of the good stuff cheaply (pound a bag?)?

anywhere you see a field of horses will have more dung than they know what to do with. I'd suggest you drive up, put on your best smile and just ask! i know if someone knocked my door i'd be delighted to let them take as much as they wanted FOC!

Just find out is the much could be contaminated first!

You'll need well rotted stuff- but fresh stuff can be composted ready for next year!

Earlier this year I contacted a local stables, they were glad to get rid of their manure. I got a whole trailer - load delivered onto the corner of my plot. That's about 8 tons!. It was free, but I gave the driver a fiver for his trouble
The manure was fairly fresh, but at that price....
I spread it and dug it in, and was growing beans, courgettes, cabbages soon afterwards with no problems
