Less than ideal Mel's Mix good enough?

Fred_in_Maine
14 years ago

The ideal MelÂs Mix calls for 5 different kinds of compost for a full balance of nutrients. All I could get was two sources of compost - cow manure and horse manure.

So I tossed in slightly more than the recommended amount of slow-release organic EspomaÂs Garden-Tone 3-4-4 and raked it into the top several inches.

Will this addition of Garden-Tone adequately supplement my less-than-perfect compost complement of mere horse and cow poop?

Thank you for any advice you can offer, Fred in Maine
