Hello everyone,
  I have a few questions that have arose since I've started preparing my
patch in the last week. So far I have added a total of six full truck loads
of maple leaves along with a little old grass clippings and a bit of old
straw. The area is now 25 ft. X 75 ft. and I plan on this for three plants.
I know it's a bit small but will expand to 30 X 90 for next year. Questions;
I have a small dump-truck,a bobcat(to load the truck),and all the cow manure
I want out of a friends grandpa's barn. Most of the manure is quite old,is
this good or bad? It is also setting on a concrete slab,some 16-18 inches
down,will the manure coming in contact with the concrete have any adverse
effects? Will it be alright to go ahead and spread say 8-10 inches on my
patch if the ground is frozen when we do this Saturday? I don't think it
will be but you never know. And will it be alright to wait till the first
decent dry day in early spring to till it in? Seeing how we got 5 inches of
rain Monday the ground will probably be either wet or frozen for quite some
time. 

Waiting for replies,
  Dewight
