Compost - organic, unsifted (Putney Farm)Grower: Putney Farm
Price: $10.00 ( 15 gallons dry-measured )Available (Estimated): 26
QUICKLY ADD ORGANIC MATTER matter to your garden!Unlike commercial fertilizers which dissipate
very quickly, poultry litter breaks down over a period of time
slowly releasing nutrients into the soil so that young plants
receive the maximum benefit through all stages of growth.
Chicken litter compost is ideal for tomatoes since they
need a slow release of nitrogen through all three stages of development.
LAWNS: Organic litter will take that spot which is sparsely covered
with grass and make it the greenest, lushest part of your lawn. At
the same time it kills out stickers and other unwanted weeds. It
is a great year round fertilizer, making lawns green even with
winter type grass. The soil will eventually become so fertile that
your lawn will be much easier to maintain. You can have the best
lawn on the block and be 100 % organic!
Tests on certain pathogens, such as E. coli, and on Gumboro and New Castle disease viruses show that they do not survive the pasteurizing effects of composting.
The nutrient content of the compost will vary depending upon the amount and nutrient content of the manure and straw, the age of the compost, and the method of storage. Compost samples analyzed by the University of Delaware had the following average analysis on an "as sampled basis":
Moisture .................................... 28%
Nitrogen (total )....................... 1.85%
ammonium nitrogen.........0.15%
organic nitrogen...............1.70%
P2O5 ........................................ 2.29%
K2O .......................................... 1.56%
