Before we gave up chickens last fall, I bagged up all the coop waste and straw. It's been sitting for almost a year. Before I apply it to the garden spot, does it need to be composted with carbon materials, or will sitting that length of time do the trick? I plan to put it out on the garden after the season ends so it can overwinter.
And I see quite a few farms locally with a horse manure mound, an ongoing location that has been in place for years. If I get a trailer load of that, I don't really need to compost it before putting it on the garden spot, correct? Although I know if it is fresh, it will be loaded with weed seeds.
