We have a ready supply of horse and cow manure from the farm next door. However, I've read that nowadays there's always a risk of it containing weedkiller.
Is there a reliable way to test for this?
We've had a huge bin full rotting down since last summer. I'm toying with the idea of mixing some with compost and using it to grow a very early crop of peas. If I start now I figure I'll know by early April if it's safe to use?
