For the last two years we've used horse manure for fertilizer, however:
1. Its messy
2. Difficult to get hold of (we have no trailer)
3. Any that does turn up on the allotments, is taken up quickly and has to be barrowed from one end to the other. (hard work)
So next year, (or sometime later this year) we decided to give granular NPK a try.
Yes, it's expensive compared to free manure, but easy to transport, probably easier and quicker to apply, a lot less messy, Oh and doesn't take the best part of a day barrowing from one end of the allotment to our plot.
What formulation is best for veggies, I see many ratios available.
