    I did that bit right, at least.

    I'm sure you could make some nice stock with it.
    Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made
    By singing-'Oh how beautiful!" and sitting in the shade,
    While better men than we go out and start their working lives
    At grubbing weeds from gravel paths with broken dinner-knives. ~ Rudyard Kipling

      What about chicken poo pellets? Can they be used the same way? I did throw them about at the begining of spring before planting.

        Chicken poo pellets are very high in nitrogen so you tend to get fast, soft growth. Best not used too late in the season around plants that you want to grow through the winter.

        Also, if you just scatter them on top they get eaten by dogs (and possibly rats?). When we use them we mix them in with the planting medium so they're not left sitting on the surface.

        The problem with rounded personalities is they don't tesselate.
