I haven't posted here in quite a few years and have peeked in to see an interesting thread about horse manure. I regularly use fresh horse manure in the garden with no ill results.

I use it a little different. By putting a 6 inch layer of DRIED horse manure on top of my raise beds,and start it burning gives me a great amount of carbon.The dried manure want blaze,it will burn very slow.Sixteen hours for a 2 foot square area.That is why it turns out to be carbon and not ashes.
