Question:

can too much manure kill vegetables?

i started a square foot garden-its actually a gardening book btw.(for those that dont know what that is) its a 4ft. x 4 ft. raised bed garden that ur supposed to use one third vermiculite,one third peat moss, n one third compost/manure(lols).ok i think my ratio was kinda off n i maaayb used too much manure,i think.anyway what i want to know is this harmful to vegetable plants,should I b concerned?help

Answer:

Too much manure can kill plants. Do not know how much is too much. If store bought manure it is made to specifications and should be ok. If you made the compost/manure yourself , it is almost impossible to know what chemical combinations your mixture is. You need to ask someone that is more expert than me.
If the manure is well aged I would not worry, when manure is green you are to be careful I wish you good luck I think I will try that next year
