Cock-a-Doodle-Poo


How could I resist putting in my belated twopenn'orth or two cents
worth on this enthralling subject? 

I use a pelletted version of the chicken product which is called
Rooster, which works very effectively, and which is more or less
odourless. At least, odourless enough for me to mix it by hand into
potting mixtures for shrubs and trees I know are going to be
containerized for some time, and not be barred from the house
afterwards. Well, not YET. I won't deny that, to pick up Moira's
phrase, there's a faint whiff of the farmyard about it - and,
afterwards, about me. 

But, then, so far as I'm concerned, getting dirty and smelly is one of
the pleasures of gardening. I defend myself by calling it grandly 'a
legitimated area of regression to childhood' - though no doubt
analysts might have different explanations...
